hiya, here we go into 2012 at North Wood :D

This meet we will be at the upper end of north wood parking will be on CP1. for those who want to, drop off your gear (see map link below) and return your car to CP1.

There will be some planned maintenance for those who want to take part, its never an issue if you would rather chill, have a wander, practice skills or just nod off!, entirely voluntary

Ok as before, just a reminder of terms and directions.

fees

recently we have had to increase the fees more or less in line with comparable sites. after talks with Gordon, (the farmer) it has been agreed that the new fees will be pegged for the next year, please pay on arrival or as soon as is practicable. I don’t want to be chasing people for fees as they’re packing up!

• 18+............. £5 per night,
• Aged 12~17 .....£3 per night
• Under 12 ..........free.


Fires

After discussions amongst the 'North Wood Regulars' it has been decided to introduce a communal fire.
We feel in order to maintain our supply of free wood it is imperative that we act now. North Wood is getting known and seems to be gaining in popularity, what none of us want is to end up in a year or so with a sterile wood. You have left your pitches in impeccable order, no blame is to be attached to yourselves but with anything up to a possible 20+ individual fires whether for warmth or cooking, stocks will rapidly dwindle.

To ensure the future of North Wood as a camping, bushcraft venue, and to conserve the continuing stocks of wood for the communal areas, the following conditions will apply;

Wood collected and processed during the course of the meet is for use in the communal fire area (excluding small sticks, twigs) so that everyone benefits, or in some cases for the use of the farmer.


If you want to bring in your own Honey Stoves, hobo stoves, twig, small stick burners (thumb size) and the like, they are acceptable providing they have sufficient ground clearance or protection to prevent scaring. Pit fires or similar are not acceptable.


Modified jerry can (or similar) stoves, tent/tipi/lavvu stoves and the like are not acceptable unless you bring a sufficient amount of fuel for your needs for the duration of the meet.


live wood is to be left untouched, unless of course there's planned maintenance, in which case it will go to the communal fire or any projects.
With all the dead wood to hand, I know it’s going to be tempting to carry on using it for individual fires, I’m hoping this is going to be self regulating however if individuals blatantly ignore this, they will not be invited back.
This is not negotiable, If you require clarification on what is acceptable, drop me a pm.

I hope I have explained my motives for these actions clearly. They have been put in place to ensure the longevity of North Wood as a venue.

Rubbish

we’re still here on trial so it really is a case of leaving no junk / fire scars etc. the only thing we should leave is a good impression, take your rubbish home, there are no facility’s to leave it on the farm.
There have been odd occasions when other peoples rubbish has had to be disposed of, If you brought it in, it’s up to you to dispose of it. No exceptions.

Under 18s

Are to be accompanied by a parent or guardian, guests or minors will be the responsibility of the person who bought, invited them,

dogs or other pets

without exeption are not allowed

Restricted areas

A small section on the approach to north wood is sssi, unless otherwise instructed this will be marked and out of bounds, as will a small area within the wood which is personal to the farmer and is strictly out of bounds, see map link below.

For security reasons the electronic gates will be closed overnight from 1900 to 0800 and all day Sunday, possible late or early arrivals feel free to pm me for the gate code. We will vacate the site no later than 1300. On whatever day the meet ends


[*=1]The gate from the farm yard into the meadow must be kept closed at all times, if you open it you close it,


[*=1]the fields on the approach to the wood are sometimes hired out to a private company. if on arrival there is any activity on the meadow between CP1 and the wood, and you need to unload or park your vehicle on CP2 or CP3, keep to the track and proceed with caution at 15mph

Sorry - need to back out of this one - I am now doing the winter skills course with Woodland Ways the weekend before with Geordie9 and it would be a bit unreasonable to be away two weekends running. So I have removed my name from the lists and re-numbered - hope that's ok

Say 'yes' unless there's a good reason to the contrary

As I age and the body wears down, I am happy to say that I appreciate a warm fire, good camp food and great outdoor fellowship.

There was mention round the fire on saturday night about a possible curry using some big ex field kitchen catering pans someone has, martin was saying about naan being pretty easy from a mix... I may have been halucinating due to the tempting smells wafting my way as I stretched hide, it might have been practical locating my workstation downwind of the cooking fire but it certainly was cruel of Clive to pick just there ;)

Just the usual I think. Axe, saw, decent pair of work gloves.

A bit of clearing and getting wood piled up for the communal fire. If we've got the chainsaw up and running we'll be sound.

Also firming up that step by the bridge from the car park.

just a reminder anybody who wants to use their saws or sharps, and maybe work up a bit of a sweat, theres a piece in the upper area id like to clear that shouldnt affect the bluebells too much. always a good excuse to have a brash burn (cooking embers Mark :) ) and restock our log pile! chainsaws up and running :D

due to the adverse weather today the track to CP3 (lower end) will probably be muddy, although the forecast for our meet is according to the met office 'favourable', it may be prudent to use the upper north wood.

however if martin and neil can assess the situation upon arrival i would be happy to use the lower north wood if passage to CP3 is possible. so... if upon arrival there are no cars on CP1 (toilets) just follow the tracks :D

:lmao: chads nailed it. :D johnnyboy, yes as per OP upper is the location only because this time of year its easier to get to with your car without lugging your kit the length of the wood, (this time of year it could be several trips to the car for some.) however, lower NW is long overdue a visit so if parking is possible, we'll go there hence the recce first.

hi phil, just turn up whenever you like mate there are people there now. take a look at the orignal post 1 theres a link to a google map, were parking on CP2 so just enter the field on the right hand side of the farmyard where the toilet block is and follow the track clockwise around the wood untill you see the car park, the lads there will put you right if i am not there :)

Thanks to everyone for another fantastic meet, was great to see old mates as well as new faces. The curry was class and the weather was perfect. Got great mileage on the first 10 miles home with less weight in the car. Der der der!

Thank you all for a very special meet! I really enjoyed it!!!! I was just telling the missis this one was extra special for some reason and ultra relaxed! It was great to put names to faces and meet some new members! :) The car boot went down a treat, and was like spending five mins in heaven! lol :cool: Trouble is you just cant say no to some of the bargains. (Steve, you've made my year mate!)

The cuzza was Tip Top thank you Prepper! And iv now come away wanting more sharps thanks to Lee and Johnny! :rolleyes:

Cant wait for the next one, it always seems to go far too fast. Luckily iv got another two nights camp starting tomorrow! :D
