for those wanting the extra day tomorrow (thursday) thats fine just roll up whenever. if the field gate is still locked gordon will be around the farm somewhere, hes ok to go and find him. or if you go to the courtyard office you will see his mob number in the window i will drop the chute up at some stage for you.

Many thanks Steve.
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

chads nailed it. 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.

Lucky Barstools getting extra dirt time. my work has me working extra long hours and now I am triple hatted with jobs, so I think it will be late Friday for me/early Saturday for me, but I am coming hell or high water.
I need a break, woodland walks are ok but not had a decent night for I can't remember

See you there.
I just thought I'd tell you that although I won't be joining you this weekend, I'll be suffering too. Apparently the temperature on the beach in Lombok might drop under 30C, and we might get a bit of rain as well....
Have fun
Ah, yes, but you'll miss Prepper's Curry 
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
