Cumbria/SW Scotland Meetup

[Deleted member 4605]

Nothing organised yet, but I thought I'd gauge possible interesting in a Cumbria and/or South West Scotland meetup.

Why don't you try Dalston Hall, just outside of Carlisle. They have beautiful grounds and I'm sure they allow controlled camp fires.

Obviously you will have to check first.

 

[Wayland]

Sounds like the type of thing I'd be interested in......

 

[Toddy]

And it's not so far that the Scots can't come down too

I figured there wouldn't be enough Cumbrian BCUK'ers, so you'd be more than welcome!

I have never poached pheasants from Dalston Hall woods when I was a teenager at all.

Never lamped rabbits just by the railway line (theres a golf course there now) either

Dunno bout camping there but I might nip over one day if its on a weekend as its only a few miles from where I live now.

If you're that close, hopefully you'll come to the meet (where ever it is).

Not sure but at a guess it would have been sometime when you were there, closer to the 83 than the 90 though.

Interested but depends on dates for me. This year I seem to have very few weekends free but there are still a couple not spoken for.

To be honest I have no idea when this will be, I'm just gauging interest prioring organising one.

I'm the same - any weekends not taken up with Scouting are booked for family-type things.

 

[kb31]

i work most weekends
but if i can get it off i'll be there

 

[Wayland]

I'm willing to help out with some logistics if I can make the dates.

 

[stuart f]

I would also be interested if i can get time off work

 

[Graham_S]

I'm interested, assuming i'm not at sea.
