Only worry is if the old dears pick that weekend as part of their holiday & I'm dog-sitting. If not - I'm in.

Hi folks,seeing as its nearly only 4 weeks to the meet i thought we might like to discuss a few things.

As i said in the first post,there is a log cabin at wooplaw to use as shelter,but we will also have a group shelter round the fire pit,as i have a chute that i will erect for our use.I also have a tiley lamp that we can suspend up inside the canopy,to light up it at night,but we may need something for inside the cabin itself. We could just use candles for it though.

Also whats folks thoughts on a communal meal for maybe the Saturday night? Wooplaw has 2 fire pits plus 2 sheltered BBQs so cooking for everyone should,nt be a problem,but if need be i also have a raised fire pit that we could use. Could i just say again if there are going to quite a few people coming,could you maybe bring some logs to keep the home fires burning please,as i really don,t want to use the wood from Wooplaw itself.

Is there anything else anyone can think of we need to cover?

Cheers Stuart.

Hi Stuart , being a community woodland i presume that dogs are allowed on site as we seem to have adopted one.

I told you that would happen

Jason

What can i say , apart from the fact that i live in a house full of women and was totally outvoted !

Even the dog is one !! I think i might give George at Comrie Croft a call and see if they have a Kata i can stay in long term - on my own!!!!

I'm sure Stuart won't mind me answering this question....yes, dogs are fine. As you'd expect, the dog will be your responsibility, but if it's well enough behaved you can happily let it off the lead for the whole time if you want. Pretty please if the dog cr*ps on the paths or other 'open' areas, clear it up (as you would if you were walking your dog in a park at home).

A wee point worth mentioning. Please be aware that some people (ie me!) are allergic to dogs, so you might need to take this into consideration. Having said that, I have gone to Wooplaw several times with a mate who has a dog. The dog knows that I won't play with him, and he just does his own thing off the lead. Mate enjoys himself, dog enjoys himself, I enjoy myself, all good.

Cheers
