    Default The (Wilderness) Gathering???

    I know this has probably been asked before - but can we have a show of hand for who is attending Wilderness Gathering.

    Mel and I will be there. I would say watch out for an Arran 5 Light - but I expect it will be seething with them.

    I will be there from Friday afternoon, looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible given that I could not make the BCUK meet.

    I'll be there with my brother in law Jim, he has a Malern Streak (big white patch) on the left side of his head. Spot him and I'll not be far away, oh yea I got a green snake on my right arm (tattoo from wrist to shoulder) and my BCUK badge sewn on my Snowsled pocket :wave:
    Gary and/or Jack will you be taking any Swanndri Bush shirts with you 'cos I'll be looking to buy one.
    We are planning to be there for the doors opening 1 o'clock Friday and staying to the end on Sunday. Sleeping under Bashas in the woods but taking a small tent as back up. ack:
    I'm looking forward to meeting all the folks from on here so don't be shy.
    Don't sweat the small stuff

    Yep I'm going.

    Basha for me and a Storm Shield tent for my friend. Not sure what to expect as I couldn't go to last years. Still haven't got my badge tho. Anybody got any ideas for anything that would be useful, or any stupid things that I shouldn't bring?

    I'll be with another irritating kevin teenage type for the whole weekend, i'm sure we'll stand out becasuse we wont have a clue whats going on-seriously tho say hi if u're BCUK we don't bite!

    I can confirm that I have been witness to the above and they really are past masters of the art. I've never seen two people consume so much tea in such a short space of time, and still crack off enough jokes to have everyone rolling around laughing ):

    Thank Kelley for his kettle. :rolmao:

    Hi guys, nice meeting you last weekend

    Oh I don't see why not ... you don't have to take the Steinway too ):

    But if you did .. you could come up with some kind of piston that attached to a stationary bicycle to run the bellows and put Julian in the saddle
