Is it true we aren't able to take gas bbq's along?

Can't understand this logic, its no different really to a two burner gas stove!

My rangers are going to be unhappy with me now!

Sorry - No BBQs Gas or charcoal or allowed.

Originally we thought that Gas BBQs would be okay, but the Executive in consultation with Health and Safety have decided to ban all types of BBQ.

I was looking forward to a BBQ too... sad.gif

Once again, sorry for the confusion.

BBQs of any description will not be allowed at any point before, during or after the Jamboree.

Sorry.

There's a Fish and CHip shops in Frinton and one Kirby Cross, plus a chinese take away in frinton. I suggest you go on to www.yell.co.uk and search for take away food in frinton on sea to get directions.

There's a lot more choice in Clacton and places a little further away. The choice is yours.

Not sure!

There is a nice pub just up the road for dinner. A bit pricey but excellent grub!

Yes, agree with Matt, 'The Ship' is a good pub.

Since we were there in 2000, they've built a fancy restaurant in what was the beer garden

Definately won't accept our sort there! I will bring pot noodles and a kettle!
Tom will be cooking from Friday, so we will be gourmet grubbing from then.
simon may
so with the pub the chinese and the fish shop we might be able to eat ok for the week

the ship's restaurant isnt that posh, but if u think its a bit upmarket, 5 minutes further down that road is the Red Lion, thats alot cheaper and not so posh. u mite like to give it a go....but the landlord in the ship is a great guy smile.gif
