I'm fine getting to ribblehead, we meeting at the car park near the pub?
people are getting there at different times. I wont be there till sat morning, with this in mind we are probably best meeting on site. If you park under the viaduct theres a flat area slightly left thats sheltered a bit by a few hills. Thats the bit i was thinking of. We can have a fire there as well:)

Potentially -8! I don't have a great amount of faith in long range forecasts, but still could be an 'interesting' night.
