title Camping at Roundhills, Brockenhurst, New Forest, Hampshire - 29th August 2015 intro 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. imgp0546 Isobel takes the boys to look at a pony imgp0548 Harry and Fred play around imgp0552 A map is consulted imgp0561 A gang of ponies wanders up the path imgp0564 There's a lot of tail swishing imgp0567 The ponies divert around us imgp0575 Pregnant mares, with a foal in tow imgp0579 Isobel has a bag of mushrooms from a stranger imgp0580 The ponies disperse through the campsite imgp0582 Harry on his balance bike imgp0584 Bernice in Spots and Stripes, Bashley imgp0585 Michelle in her shop imgp0586 Tanya roams around Michelle's shop imgp0588 Phil chats to his dad imgp0589 The boys check out the toy table imgp0590 There's quite a throng in Michelle's shop imgp0593 Bernice shows something to Fred imgp0595 We have hot chocolate in the café next door imgp0598 Sydney's back form a riding lesson imgp0600 Fred goes nuts in the garden centre imgp0601 Fred next to a giant plant imgp0602 Fred runs around with an Action Man imgp0604 Harry meets Binky, Seans' dog imgp0605 We go to see Little Granny in her new care home imgp0607 Harry shows something to Little Granny imgp0608 Harry and "granny" imgp0609 Fred does some cool moves with ribbons imgp0612 Granny and Harry imgp0614 Nosher's grandmother (93) and Harry (3) imgp0617 We chat with Grandmother imgp0618 Granny is off on a trip to Cliffhanger Café imgp0623 A three-generation photo imgp0625 Harry, Fred and Grandmother imgp0627 Harry does a "look" imgp0629 A black cow munches on grass imgp0633 Fred checks to see if this cow has udders or not imgp0634 Cyclists at Roundhills imgp0635 Isobel roams around the van imgp0638 Fred has a laff as Nosher looks grumpy imgp0642 Isobel tries her bike out imgp0644 Fred's abandoned bike imgp0651 Fred shows off his new Action Man imgp0652 A couple of ponies imgp0654 A foal trots past imgp0658 A gathering of ponies imgp0660 The boys look at the ponies imgp0661 Fred and Isobel have a moment imgp0669 Some cows march around imgp0670 Fred's bike and a sunlit tree imgp0673 The boys' shoes are on sticks to dry imgp0681 The van and awning in the moonlight
