Is this place easy to get to by public transport...?Tony said:the site is in Plwmp, about 15 minutes from Cardigan, right near the coast.
We might be able to get out for some Mackrel as well

Where are you traveling from?

You'll need to catch the 7.58 Valley Lines train from Fernhill to Cardiff Central, then change to the First Western train to Carmarthen. This should arrive around 10.50am. Then you can catch the 460 or 461 bus from Carmarthen to Cardigan. This will take another hour and a half. Ed reckons there's a local bus from Cardigan to Plwmp, but I haven't been able to find confirmation of this. However, as Ed doesn't have a driving licence or a bicycle, I'll bow to his superior knowledge of the public transport system.Wenie said:Is this place easy to get to by public transport...?
By the time you've bought seperate return tickets from each of these deregulated companies I doubt if you'll have much change from fifty quid.
If you leave the house at seven thirty, you should arrive at the moot by about three o'clock in the afternoon. There are less trains and buses on Sundays, so the return trip will take a lot longer.
Anyone else in despair over the state of our public transport system?
No wonder we all insist on driving everywhere, no matter how much tax we have to pay for the priviledge of destroying the environment.

:yikes: Dude, were you really bored or something...?
It'd probably be even more expensive than £50 as it'd be during term time, so I'd be coming all the way from Reading... So I vote you give me a lift! 
If people give me a bit of petrol money I'll pick them up from Carmarthen, I'd be able to get about 8 people in. it'll be quicker and cheaper than getting the train and then the bus.
I expect Stuart will come over as well so he might be able to bring one or two

Dude, I've researched a custom made timetable which even you can understand, and you're still hassling me for a lift. :swordfigh I know that Ed, Dean, Ian, Dai, cgait, KT and Karen don't have a driving licence between them, so perhaps you should see if Cwmaman Institute will run a bus to the moot. :thinkerg: Or better still, tell Els to stick a mattress under the Ifor Williams canopy on his Hi Lux so he can take the entire Cwmaman bushcraft massive to the moot in comfort. Of course, that's assuming he manages to get the thing to start with duff glowplugs - I told him to buy a proper truck like mine. 
Not a chance.... oh and by the way, just before the confusion starts, this is just a local meetup I believe, not a full on BCUK moot....you'll have to wait for the spring and summer for the bushmoots. It'll be good to get together for a relaxing weekend though.
Ed
Generous offer, Tony. :You_Rock_ I'll be bearing it in mind if I don't manage to get a lift out of havingagiraffe...Tony said:
I'm comming from blackwood just south of Tredegar and willing to pick up anyone who wants a lift
Wenie, Where do you want a lift from?
Wenie, Where do you want a lift from?
Wenie, I'll be travelling from Guildford so could go via Reading and pick you up if you wish (and if thats where you'll be)

Thanks for clarifying the difference between a meet and a moot.

Can someone, probably Ed, please clarify whether this meet is an open invitation or is it meant to be a 'Local' only affair. I have registered interest previously and do not want to upset people if its is just a 'Local' meet.
Its open to everyone, alot of people travel a fair distance to attend other local meetups and I see no reason why this one should not be the same.... (as long as there is space in the field I guess)... If you are willing to travel you are more than welcome ....
I was just pointing out that this was not a moot with organised activities like the others. This is more of a social gathering where we can chat, swap skills, oogle over peoples flash kit and have some fun.
