The day after the Bank Hol storms, I had a wander round the campsite, I was really on the look out to see if I could spot any other Delta peg users, I couldnt!

But I did spot these old poles being used as pegs!!

Would have been an idea to bent or tape the tops though....

Bag of spuds, one potato per pole and on last day use the poles to put spuds on campfire to bake.

Not to be confused with potato pegs
