    Can I play, I fancy getting out again. Don't mind a pint or two either. Is croft in Swindon any good? Not exactly woods and next to the motorway but???
    I might have an area in Avebury but would have to ask (Friend of a friend).

    Wednesday good for anyone? Pint is fine (Gluepot in the railway village is good for the Ale lovers!) or do people fancy an evening in the woods?

    I am local to Swindon and missed the beer at the Gluepot. Have you guys been getting out this summer? Anything else planned?

    Hey Scott,

    Only managed to get out once this year...a shameful performance I know. Hoping to get out this weekend though, just need to secure some lodgings/space. Would be up for another pub meet if we can get some interest.

    Red Lion, Avebury. The brave ones could walk up the Ridgeway and hide overnight?!?!

    Interested in doing some bushcraft with you, but probably give the pub meet a miss as its a little far

    Just camp, I would query the private ownership which is in doubt but even these people say you can.

    Interesting website. In all the years I'd travelled the ridge I'd never come across a central point for this info. At last! Although only after they closed most of it as a road.

    there is an area not far from croft. It's the woods at the bottom of Broome Manor. Should be green enough to hide in for a couple of days.
