Get Together in Cornwall -- February

[Sainty]

Hello

I've been in conversation with a Rawshak (Justin) and Nightwalker (Ashley) with a view to arranging a get together in Cornwall in February.

Ashley has recommended a wood near to St Austell that encourages camping, doesn't mind fires, fishing (they have their own lake) and most other bushcraft-stuff.

As far as dates are concerned, how does either Sat 14th or Sat 28th Feb sound? Could include Friday as well but I have to work and couldn't get there in daylight?

Cost is £5 per night so not too bad and a good opportunity to shake some of the dust off those tarps and hammocks.

If you're interested, post here along with a preferred date and I'll contact the owners to sort something out.

The permission to use the land hasn't been confirmed yet, but hopefully it shouldn't be a problem, im waiting on word back from the landowner.

I'd be up for that, have to be the 14th though.

 

[Nightwalker]

Ok, the landowner has got back to me and given permission to have a camp/meet of say 12 people or so. I think we should have met up and discussed it a little before posting it up for everyone but hey.

The 14th of Feb is just fine for me as its the start of my holidays, however a co-worker did just point out to me that this date is Valentines day; My wife is very understanding so I'd probably be in the clear, however I know my good friend has already made plans, so its something to bear in mind and not forget men!

 

[bear knights]

sounds good. I'm up for either 14th or 28th.

 

[ANDYRAF]

I could probably manage the 28th, looks like fun. Is this at Chris's organnic farm, Mmmmmm sausages.

Andy

 

[rawshak]

I can do either, but the 28th is probably better for me. Definitely up for it though

 

[Rhoda]

I'll come too! I can make either date. Be nice to see you guys and it's a great little site

 

[Steve M]

I'd prefer to the 28th, but can probably shufty things about for the 14th.

Assuming the invitation is open, that is.

 

[Sainty]

It looks like the 28th seems to be favourite. Can't wait for this to happen, what sort of things would people like to do when we're there?

I'm a hammock virgin so I want to learn how to pitch my hammock and tarp and get a decent night's sleep.

[Steve M]

Oh, you think you're a virgin I'm used to camping with a car!

Personally, I'd be happy to just chill and swap stories.

It will be interesting to see how a larger group of normally quite independent people operate and how different skills are applied. I'll be bringing a note book.

 

[Dave Budd]

well, I'm afraid that I won't be able to make as I'm teaching on the 14th Next time maybe

 

[ANDYRAF]

Has anyone made a decision yet for a date as I now find I could do either day. 28th is preferred.

I don't believe that a date has been 'finally' set but my money would be on Sat 28th overnight till Sunday 29th.

Ashley is struggling a bit for time to devote to this at the moment and, if he can't get back to me by the middle of this week, I'll contact the land owner and book it for 28th.

Therefore, I could really do with an idea of numbers for the 28th so that I can let them know what they are in for. Hope this is OK for all concerned.

Martin

 

[Steve M]

Me, myself and I. That's one

 

[Nightwalker]

Right, medical crisis over now!.. Looks like I should be able to make it The 28th is good for me, by the way there's only 28 days to Feb, so it'll be 28th - 1st of March. PMs sent.

 

[ANDYRAF]

One of these days, I'll get the hang of this calender thing. Definate for the 28th - 1st.

[shocks]

Well love to be there but I'll be in sweden on the 28th so will have to let this one pass me by.....

 

[Sainty]

Please add your name to the list, seems like 12 would be the maximum number for this meet due to space.
