Camping at Roundhills, Brockenhurst, New Forest, Hampshire - 29th August 2015

It's time for another camping trip, this time a bit further afield to the New Forest and Nosher's old stomping ground. The trip down is somewhat hairy, thanks to the truly epic rain en route and the many hold-ups on the way, but the weather sorts itself out for what turns out to be a nice few days in the Forest. There's also the utterly freaky coincidence that old school friend Phil, plus wife Tanya, are over from the US for a couple of days, so Nosher cycles from Roundhills outside Brockenhurst to meet up for a few beers with Phil and Hamish at Sean's house in Hordle.
