Will try for Friday, usually leave work about 5pm. So even you should manage to stay awake until I get there Ivan! x

Oh yes, and thanks to the so and so who floated that name for the meet! Such a wicked sense of humour you lot!

Weather is looking cloudy and a bit wet and windy for that weekend so far - depending on where you look for info. We may need a couple of tarps to huddle under.

My intentions...

...To attempt world domination.
...To get quite drunk, while doing the above.
...To try and figure out, where that traffic cone came from.

All of which shall be put into motion, at this meet.

Right ! Hello people , just an update on plans for the meet.

Depending on weather conditions, parking will either be in the field as usual or down the track by the cabin.

The cost will be £10.00 for the weekend , but anyone wishing to make it a longer break can come from Wednesday 11th January ( no extra cost of course ) There are a few bits to be done like , resiting the woodland drop , erecting tarps , gathering firewood etc , so anyone coming early and helping with those tasks there will be no charge , also anyone wanting to stay for the longer option , don't worry as there is more comfortable accomodation , shower etc available.

The meet as ever is not restricted to all ready seasoned members of the Dartmoor gang , so if anybody wants to come and try it out you would be more than welcome , we are a very friendly bunch ( you don't have to stay , you can just come and have a nose ! )

I am planning at least one group meal ,joint in hangi plus veg , but don't feel you have to partake if you don't want to , most of you know the score anyway ( group kettle never leaves the fire ! )

Also if anyone wants to come and tuck themselves away , you are more than welcome and can have your own fire .

Any other questions , or things i have missed just ask .

If anyone has plans for any activities , just shout if materials , planning etc are required, all suggestions gratefully received .

Atb Ivan...

[Ivan...]

Oh forgot to add , those that wish to partake , best spoon carved at the meet ( blanks provided or bring your own ) as judged by my daughter Katie will win a Bahco Laplander Folding Saw ...

Does that include people that get there a few days early, get a head start on carving, and end up with some kind of sculpted masterpiece?

 

[Ivan...]

My dear Adam , you should be a diplomatic envoy sir , it is out of my hands as Katie's decision is final , good point though , these things take time , once i have spoken to her ladyship i will get back to you ..

 

[savagebushcraft]

Oh, there's some guy pretending to be you, over on NB, too

 

[Ivan...]

Right that does it , i have rang Katie she will deal with you directly , look out ! she is the judge and as i have said before her decision is final ! ( somebody let her know about the upcoming meet , and when i find out who, there will be trouble )

 

[Mongoose13]

To answer your question Adam, I will take ever
