I had only be loking at the groud thread and not this one - if anyone has a dutch oven or similar they could bring that would be great. I need three for tonight's meal and I have only one. Matt I think has another so I nee d a third.

 

[shaggystu]

Does it need to be the cast iron style thingy Chris or would just a big pan with a lid do the job?

 

[Elines]

Hi Stu

I need another dutch oven for the humungous quantity of hash - probably from Matt?

But the (ready made yesterday) mashed potato just needs warming through so I guess any old BIG pan with a lid will do

 

[MattF]

Dutch oven on site Chris

 

[Elines]

Thanks Matt for another brilliant weekend - good weather, no members of the public passing nearby, tried out a new tarp, met several new people, got on with some (site) projects and the communal cooking went well - gives more time for general chat/chilling out - so a very good time.

Particular thanks to folk for letting me practice my 'taking pictures of people'. If any of:

Andy
Elen
Ged
Matt
Si

want the pictures (ie head-type shots rather than distance ones -) then just PM me with an e-mail address and I will send them. They will be reduced (in megabyte terms) to make them easier to e-mail so should anyone actually want to print one off just let me know and I will send a bigger file.

One picture I took is called, 'Spot the deliberate mistake'

I won't embarrass anyone by naming the culprit.

Of course, others may not have the same scruples .......

Hope the walkers who left early (?) on Saturday morning had a good time too.

Ha ha ha, that's a classic

I'm guessing it was Matt, he looked a bit ropey come bed time on Friday night

The walk up Kinder was really nice, fairly bleak and blowy on the top at camp but we were all cosy in our various shelters. I left the others to it this morning when I left at 8 o'clock, the winds were picking up in the valley when I reached the car so I imagine they had good fun packing up.

Nope.


Glad the walk went ok.

Thanks for that Rich even I wouldn't have done that I felt OK in the morning

 

[Shewie]

Lol, only jesting mate

 

[Elen Sentier]

It was a grand w/end, thank you Matt and everyone, and it was very good to meet folk at last. Nice to have a quiet space and loved the communal cooking. The Table is very good, will get my pix of its construction up tomorrow. I love work, I could watch it all day especially in good company! And chanting for the pile-driving was good fun .

behind every creative woman there's usually a very talented cat ...

 

[Shewie]

Good meet you at last Elen, even if it was only briefly.

Thanks for the go in the Ridgerunner, it's in a whole different league to the last bridge I had. We need to chat about ordering gear at some point, let me see what's happening about a snowboarding trip at Xmas and then I'll know what funds I have spare.

 

[MattF]

I'm Pleased you enjoyed the weekend Elen I trust the eggs didn't get scrambled on the way home

 

[Big Si]

Sorry I left early chaps, but really did enjoy the time I was there. I really do need an underquilt, with some other bits and bobs. I shall be busy in the next few weeks. Thanks for the food, it really did make the hole experience easier for me.
