Just a couple of quick questions. Do we need to pay any fees up front and is there parking alongside the camping area?
Also do we order breakfasts when we arrive?
Not long now and looking forward to meeting up.

Timely question, I was going to post a reminder

The bunk house doesn't do 'plastic' so take cash to pay before we leave please; no need for any upfront payment. The way it's worked in the past we've just placed our order for breakfast the evening before.

I can't guarantee everyone will be able to park next to their pitch but the parking is very close to where we are camping so we'll only have 20 or so metres to carry our gear I think.

Whoa hang on I must of missed a memo somewhere!!! Breakfast!? There is breakfast available?

BTW how much per night for tent pitch #Broch?

How did I miss that?! 24 quid for 2 nights camping and breakfast that's a bargain!

Highly likely I'll need to scrub my name off the list now. I live in Caerphilly which has just been placed in local lockdown. I shall keep you updated.

Any more takers for this event folks?! Great chance to have a chilled couple of days in the beautiful Hafren Forrest in Mid Wales with like minded people.

I think a smaller group for the first time we run it at the Bunkhouse is ideal to be honest. A dozen or so for the second meet is probably about right too; we can see how it can work there and plan then for next year.

It will be nice to look at Hafren as I haven’t had a chance to look at the forest yet. Also looking forward to Cylwedog a lot of my friends have fished it and always enjoy them selves.

Will have to miss the September one due to quarantine regime.

Will have to miss the September one due to quarantine regime.

There was only going to be six of us originally anyway and Paul had already dropped out because he is working on Wednesday leaving just 5 so within the rules. Theoretically we can still meet in a group of up to 30 people in Wales but I understand your concern. What happens across the borders hasn't been made clear again!

Now so there are now only 4 of us on Monday; do the rest of you still want to meet?

 

[Broch]

Just to add, I think there is value in meeting as a small group even if it's just to evaluate the site for the future.

Let me know your thoughts

 

[Forgeways]

I have planned my month around this so definitely still keen to meet on Monday morning.

We are still up for this meeting

 

[Broch]

That's great., I'll see you there!

 

[Ogri the trog]

If I can get away from work early enough on Monday, I hope to pay a flying visit, just for a short while - be great to put some faces to names.

 

[Forgeways]

I will be sure to hide my face in that case Pete be good to see you
