people are getting there at different times. I wont be there till sat morning, with this in mind we are probably best meeting on site. If you park under the viaduct theres a flat area slightly left thats sheltered a bit by a few hills. Thats the bit i was thinking of. We can have a fire there as well

 

[copper_head]

Great stuff, ill be there sat morning. Managed to snap my handbrake cable today. Ill get the train if i cant get it fixed in time though.

Potentially -8! I don't have a great amount of faith in long range forecasts, but still could be an 'interesting' night.

Not gonna make this now lads I'm currently lying on a hospital ward waiting to go to surgery to rebuild the foot I decided to smash with an axe. Pictures available upon request. Sorry to let you down.
