British BBQ Society Forums

here's an aerial view of the terrain where the competition will be held.
as I'm helping out the organizer, they needed a grid lay-out of the ground, so I devided it up in 10x10 meters.
This should be more than enough to accomidate a camper/tent and smoker setup, not saying we'll go with a predefined space per team. so it turns out we got more than an acre and I already saw a spot I now call dibs on

in google maps or google earth look up "Haarlemmermeersche bos" (could be a Welsh name) zoom in and find papa's beachhouse located in the souther point of the small lake (more like a pond actually)
the field we'll be using is directly to the left (west) of it.
papa's beachhouse will be the location for the judges and organisation.


the beachhouse is being rebuild, so it will be finished a month before the competition. it will look something like this:

So with TS2013 only a month away, has everyone got their travel plans sorted?

We're going to be getting the 11.50am euro tunnel on the friday and wondering if anyone else will be on the same train?

Call us lightweight Ed & Emma but it's a bit far to travel, even for food as good as yours

Guys, just a heads-up that competition area will be accessable from 4pm on friday the 17th. so if anybody is arriving before that time just let me know and we'll welcome you at the parking lot next to "Papa's Beachhouse"

for sure we'll be there anyway all day arranging the last minute stuff etc

I'm on the 1020 Eurotunnel. May well be at the comp site before 1600.

No problem, we'll be there.
just to be sure; drop me an email: steven.westerkamp@gmail.com
and I'll send my cell number so you have a local contact.

Just a quick good luck wish to the UK competitors, have a nice time, a short hangover and a proud "walk". Looking forwards to seeing the pictures, the publishable ones as well

Best wishes K&A

For those about to grill we slute you
