if you want to bring red wine and sugar, I have quite a few Gluhfix (gluhwein teabags!) that we can use...

Hi Swyn, I sent a PM to Tony yesterday but haven't heard back.
I'd like to come to the Christmas Moot and bring my 18 year old son but have a few questions.
1. Is there room for us?
2. Is the nearest train station Princes Risborough? (I'm driving from Chester but will pick my son up as he's coming from London).
3. If I were able to make it on Friday evening would that be ok?
4. I presume I'll be bringing my own food, stove, pots etc?

Hello Lightfoot.
I think Tony is very busy at present so will answer your questions as best I can.
1, Yes, plenty of room, be it tent, hammock or basha etc.
2, 'Risborough is probably the best station to get to and pick your boy up from if you are coming from Chester.
3, Fri eve is fine if you are prepared to help the others who are doing the setting up.
4, This is very much a self catering event. There will be a fire to use for cooking/burning your food.
As the venue is at 750 feet above sea level I would recommend to bring warm stuff.
Would it be possible for you to pay 'Bushcraft Media' in advance as requested by Tony? This will ensure that you recieve the directions and just makes life simpler. Failing that I'm sure that it is OK to pay on arrival.
Any problems with this please don't hesitate to send a PM to me. I will answer promptly.
Regards from Swyn.

I have paid and an giving Adi and possibly Tengu a lift. Directions would be handy.
Is there anyone closer to Swindon than I am that could offer Tengu a lift?

Just been taking a look at the weather forecast for the weekend, Saturday looks good so far, a bit chilly but an extra layer will sort that out. Sundays down for showers, so all in, it looks like a promising weekend.
Take a look on the following link if you're interested:-

I think I'll bring along some Blackberry vodka too, as a warmer, it's been on the go since August, so may be ready by now? Haven't tried it before, so it's a bit experimental.

You can see it on the map here:

I've not got a tow bar on the Shogun.
So it's the Golf this weekend and I'm not going to get all my kit in that
The low-loader driver said he needs the post code for his Sat Nav. :yikes:

To much kit to carry, I was thinking of coming along on my bike, just to try and resist the urge to bring too much! at the Merthyr moot this year we could've lasted for months on what we took!!
