Bushmoot 2007

  • Hey Guest, Early bird pricing on the Summer Moot (29th July - 10th August) available until April 6th, we'd love you to come. PLEASE CLICK HERE to early bird price and get more information.
there looks like there is going to be a rail strike on friday.
bloody unions:cussing: :cussing: :cussing:
I'm having a little trouble sorting out a train to get me down to the Moot. I'm not keen on driving due to the long distance and the amount it's going to cost me in petrol:eek:


Hi Graham
Its along way true enough, but it is an easy drive, if somewhat boring in parts. I used to do it fairly regular when I was working in St Andrews and could'nt get a cheap flight Edinburgh to Cardiff. Petrol though thats a different matter I dread to think what it would cost these days

as it turned out the industrial action has been cancelled.
now all I have to contend with is the inevitable engineering works.
I should be getting into Bridgend around 1545ish on Friday.
Any chance of someone picking me up at the station?

Could the tide times be put on a board there please. I would like try to catch razor clams.

Is the beach safe for paddling (not swimming)? i am not worried about pollution, as i have swum at prestatyn without illness, it more a issue with currents or underwater shelfs.

Does everyone go to special effort not to add nitrogen to the environment, like no bear thing or burial of food waste. like you burn it and use the toilets?

My thanks as well. Myself and the beloved had a great time.

Apologies for the rather drunken storytelling on the Saturday night, but I had to wait till the little ones had gone to bed.

"...I've got Fenris's b*********s, and they're mine, all mine..."

Julian, if that was you, then there are at least a few of the mods that appreciated it and no need to apologise, we had a good time and the story kept a smile on our faces for a long time.

The story of Thor with Ratatosk in it brought a large smile to most anyone who was there, many thanks for your input, it was very much appreciated and I think you would be welcome at any storytellers evening as long as the youngsters were in bed (as they were):D.

All the best and a pleasure to see you there, hope to see you next year,

Leon.

Cracking story telling mate,..."the callow youth" is still in stitches about it with luck he'll not tell his mother when he goes back at the end of the month, that said though I had always wondered why Fenris was determined to bring about the end of the world,...hardly supriseing really, given that pesky Ratatosk and his capers.
Cheers Tim
