There is plenty of space and we are the only group there so it would be great if anyone can bring archery gear and help to supervise a range.


I can bring a few 2D paper targets, but ideally we could do with a few hay bails, or LOTS of sheets of cardboard and a couple of support frames.

Don't have any training bows though im afraid, and not really comfortable lending my new bow out yet. :eek:

Hi Andy, I don't want anyone feeling pressurised into bringing/lending kit if they are not comfortable with it and to be honest at that time of year we would have to be lucky with the weather to be arranging proper events at any rate so no worries mate. So long as you can bring yourself is good enough :D

Because I can't really afford the lavvu/stove option (or Ian's group buy underblanket for that hence making one) at present I'm in the process of making my own underblanket so it looks like I'll be tree swinging on this one and the family will retire to the homestead :D

I imagine there will be a few lavvu's there though. What setup are you intending to use?

I'll hopefully have the underblanket, but if not, I'm on the deck again. I will not be bringing a child this time, I find they are far too much like hard work!

I will see what I can do, re bows and butts. But I am still a want to be there rather than a definite, I will be trying!


If the lavu is too full at night me and Spam could possibly hot bunk with others by the time we have finished putting the world to rights round the fire!

The first new years meet in Scotland the temperatures dropped well below zero and back then I didn't even have the underblanket. I just wrapped a normal blanket around the whole hammock with me in it and was fine.

By the time this was taken I did have the underblanket and I was actually a bit too warm overnight as I was nicely sheltered under the trees.

I don't see what the problem is......:p

Count me in dependant on dates near the time :D

I take it we can have off the ground fires ? wouldn't want to be anywhere without a fire ;)

John,

I had a word and yes, there are some 1/2 barrel fire altars we can use. Plus the standard brick hearth firepits about the place that are common on Scout sites.
