Just to let you know, Ruth & I won't be able to make it after all :( Ruth's Father has been taken ill and I need to take Ruth to see him in hospital in Dartford.

I hope you all have a good time, I'll be thinking of you...

Sorry we couldn't make it this time

Was it only the four of you?
That is a serious amount of food. It's given me a couple of ideas for things to try
Hoping to make the next one

Sorry about this but due to my complete inability to figure out how to post pics directly onto the thread its the best i can do.

Chopper ; The only thing I can suggest is give it a lot of time, it seems to say done and nothing happens then they suddenly all come on to the screen.

Better still come along and se us in 3D.

2blackcat ; No there were seven but some of them kept moving (paranoid I guess)

Folks

I have just discovered that Jon Lord does a one on one flint knapping day for £100. Thats a bit pricey for me but he does say that you can bring three friends along. Thats £25 each and good value IMHO. Anybody up for a menage a quarte Prehistoric style. Maybe late august as im pretty full for the next 8 weeks.
