I spoke to Keith on the phone today,
Seems like the whole family are going - second moot for the young-un and she's not even a year old!

See you there. I'll bring the Ogripod for anyone who's interested, and some other inventions besides .

Any chance of a new guy from Pembs coming along?

 

[Dougster]

Looks like I can't make this one either. I'll just have to make it in July.

 

[Tony]

Any objections to a new boy tagging along?

None at all


Looking forward to it

 

[Greg]

Sorry Ed Should have made sure you knew. You should be able to put up what you want. There’s a few choices as there’s woodland down the bottom of the land but it will probably be wet getting there. There’s an old bridle paths that can take hammocks strung across them or there’s plenty of room for tents. We’ll be allowed to go where we want.

I hope you can make it….Yes do bring some safety wood, it would me a great competition to see who can get a fire going Heck, put that stuff on a roaring blaze and it will put it out :yelrotflm It would be good to see you again.

Looking forward to it guys

Gutted to have to miss this one chaps, have a great time!

 

[John Fenna]

Looking forward to the weekend!
Weather forcast looks...OK I will leave that out!
I hope to get there at about 4ish and will have a bit of kit to trade/sell/swap inc some knives and self inflating camping mats.
It will be good to put faces to names, meet old friends and get out in the woods for a while.
See you there
John

 

[Ed]

Well everything seems to have fallen into place nicely.... so I'll be there

Ed

 

[John Fenna]

Do not let the weather forcast put you off! Do that and you will never get out - at least not in Wales!

[Tony]

Anyone got a small chute? I've not got any left. It might be good to have one if we can.

 

[John Fenna]

I will bring my mega tarp, which will be of some use, and try to get a 'chute on the way.
John

 

[Tony]

Good man John

 

[John Fenna]

Thanks to everyone who came along for making my first BCUK weekend so enjoyable!
Special thanks to Tony for finding the site and to Ogri the Troll for showing me his answer to cold nights in a hammock.
I had a great and chilled out time but was amazed at how few folk turned up....fair weather bushcrafters...?
As the Girl Guides say "Don't complain - camp in the rain" it only rained for one night after all!
There was talk of bi-monthly meets in future - I am up for it, any other takers?
John

 

[Ed]

but was amazed at how few folk turned up....fair weather bushcrafters...?

Not a fair weather bushcrafter at all mate.... I dont know if Tony made my appologies, but since myself and my other half have just been made redundant I had to deal with dole office / job club (friday) and interviews (saturday).... sorry I wasn't there, but putting a roof over my head and feeding us takes priority over chilling out in the woods .... I hope you understand my postition and you all had a great time, and I'm sorry I missed it
