Mid-Wales and the Borders Bush Camp - 23rd - 25th October *** IMPORTANT NEWS ***

[Broch]

*** CANCELLED *** - sorry, but as from next Friday 23rd October Wales is in Lockdown

This camp is planned around the Hafren Bunkhouse from Friday 23rd to Sunday 25th October (2 nights).

I don't intend to be sitting at the camp fire on my own - so, before I confirm arrangements with the Bunkhouse and others can you please all decide if you intend to come by adding your names to the list below (subject to there being no changes in the Covid-19 rules by then). Sorry to be a pain, but there is no way of me knowing the support for this otherwise. I would suggest we need a minimum of six people to attend to make it worthwhile.

For clarity, we are still allowed for up to 30 people to meet outdoors in Wales subject to maintaining social distancing. It is up to you to decide if you think it is a responsible thing to do (bring people together from different areas) or not. Some of you that expressed interest in coming will not be able to do so as things stand now because of travel restrictions. Bizarrely, if you're in a lock-down area in England you can still travel to Powys but from North and South Wales you can't!

I still hope to make it, though I don't know what sleeping plans I'll use and I may have to pop back to Trog HQ at some point on Saturday.

I’m in (took the Friday of work). Social distancing is very important but I’m sure we are in a good place for that. Good mental health is also paramount and sharing experiences around a fire is good for the soul.
Everybody should do what they think is best for them and be respected, naturally, for that.You know the place, so can decide whether a lower maximum needs to be set so everybody is comfortable.

Sorry guys Iam currently self isolating due to an exposure to COVID-19 and awaiting results of my test. I’m going to be off work for a couple of weeks and then flat out for about a month catching up so I am going to have to miss this one

Interested in a future meet at the same or similar location in the future when things get back to some measure of normality.

All the best

I’ll be there provided things don’t get any worse for us at the moment. As long as I can be within 2 meters of the fire!

Sorry to hear that mate. Hope your test comes back ok, maybe we could get a Christmas meet up if things go well?

At the moment, we have local restrictions in our area : Conwy.
If there is any change, then we will attend.

Work is throwing up a few surprises at the minute so I can neither confirm or deny my availability at the minute....

To be honest Pete, the whole country is in such turmoil, I don't think any of us can be 100% sure we'll be able to attend at this moment in time

Work maybe calling me in, So mine it so much a case of being kept away....more of a case we need you to sort stuff out so come on in

 

[pjjcarroll]

Looks like living in Solihull means I’m banned from Wales?
not sure what to do as really looking forward to this, being a newbie to the group.

 

[Broch]

I suspect that by next weekend we will be in total lockdown to be honest; we may have to reschedule anyway. I'll wait to see what is announced over the next few days

 

[Broch]

Sadly, the predicable has happened and Wales is in full Lock-Down from Friday 23rd October. Consequently we will not be able to run this meet-up.

 

[TinkyPete]

Sad to hear but not a surprise

 

[FerlasDave]

It’s a shame but I personally can see the sense behind it...
I am sure we will be able to get a 2020 meet up, we just have to be patient.
