Kielder Forest Meet (gauging interest)

[Dreadhead]

Hi folks, I have been meaning to sort this out for a while now so sorry for the delay!

I'd like to gauge interest in a possible meet somewhere in Kielder forest. I am thinking a four day weekend sometime in June? I've contacted the FC officer for Kielder to enquire about permits and such but they are out of office until next week so I will give them a call monday and see what the deal is.

So first off, who is interested? and when suits everyone if June is no good?
And second, does anybody have any recommendations for places within Kielder?

Let get this ball rolling

Depending on the leg, it would be cool to meet some of the folks from off here.

June's a bit busy for me but July might work.
Interested to know how you get on with the Rangers office/ permits etc.

Yeh, I might be interested. Be nice to know if dogs are allowed, and canoes?

 

[Dreadhead]

will keep this running to see who else is interested. Still trying to get hold of the FC officer, they are always a pain to get in touch with! I'll keep this updated when I can bear with me

Sounds good. I'd only be able to do the weekend due to work commitments but definitely interested.

 

[Native Nathan]

I'm up for this

If i can be free when it happens and grab a hire car i'll be up for this, Kielder is tricky to get to from Newcastle without wheels, public transport between here and there really is pathetic

 

[fergsuk]

If there's anyone passing through or near to Leeds and I can hitch a ride, I might pop along.

 

[Dave]

I could possibly pick up a few people on the way up in my landy, [GGTBod, Copperhead, Fergsuk] if you dont mind the back of your head being licked by a chocolate lab. And drop you off on the way back down.

 

[fergsuk]

That would be great Dave!

Let's wait for the info from the FC and get the ball rolling.

 

[Crassy84]

Keep me posted on dates guys I'm definitely interested like.

 

[copper_head]

Cheers Dave that sounds great.
