Well done Gaz :You_Rock_
Not sure if I will be able to make this one as yet, I will know nearer the time. I went up there a couple of months ago for a recce, just not had chance to do anything about it since.
It seems a good site with lots of scope for camping but possibly limited for hammocks.

 

[gaz_miggy]

right i was up at the park yesterday and confermed dates with mark the weekend of the 26-27th of this month, pm me and ill give you my moblie its quite a big site so may need finding, the only stipulation is be sencible with fire and we rope of our area so the public dont just wonder through

 

[RodStrod]

I'd like to give this a go, went to the moot and had a pretty good time so why not continue!

I'll confirm deffo nearer the time, Gaz you have a pm

thumbs up for organising

 

[Singeblister]

wont be able to make this one but I hope the next

 

[IamSam]

Its strange what you stumble on just before bed. I was a volunteer at the beacon before I moved to uni in Manchester (still here 10 years now). Grew up in Upholland/Skem and spent most of my child hood there making fires and shelters and hiding from the rangers . Will try to get down to this meet up should be a great trip down memory lane. Get to see the trees I planted and see how the place has aged.

Sorry for the ramble

 

[sxmolloy]

Gaz, you have a PM...Cheers....Stu

 

[andy_scouser]

Id say, provisionally, can myself and a freind come along too. we both live in Ormskirk so theoretically could turn this into a hike as well

 

[gaz_miggy]

well im hoping to start a good rapore with the park, the rangers there wont us there and i quote we wont the woods to be used, they are getting a charcoal kiln soon as well,

 

[PJMCBear]

Can't join you this time, but would be interested in coming along in the future.

 

[andy_scouser]

8ollox, I can't make it either as ive got a double header shooting comp (UKAHFT) that very weekend....

I promise ill be at the next one, you've got my number so your welcome to call any time if you want.
