Hi Drew , there is a parachute set up in the lower field with a wheel rim fire pit in the middle with plenty space for everyone to sit around .

There is plenty or space in the woods for camping and hammocking and you can have yourself a fire there if you want , just keep it to a reasonable size and don't cut any of the standing or fallen trees . there is firewood available to buy from comrie croft or Colin might take the landy for a drive up the hill to pick our own .

I should be arriving at Comrie Croft around Midday to early afternoon tomorrow. Hopefully someone will already have the fire up and running if not i will get it going. Looking forward to this one, a pleasant change from spending new years eve in a pub with hundreds of other people. see you guys and girls there.

Not even sure whos going to this one as i have just finished packing most of my gear for the trip and cant be bothered trawling through 6 pages of comments.

Just a wee final BUMP for new year at Comrie croft , Me and the family will be heading up for Friday lunchtime and staying right through till Monday morning .

As usual there will be the parachute in the lower field with its fire circle to sit around , also i have the makings of a big pot of soup and for Saturday night i have some haggis,neeps and tatties (both veggie and normal)
So if you are at a loose end on the 31st pop on over for the night and have a dram round the fire.

P.S. we will also be requiring a first foot or two ! :cool:

Happy new year to everyone that wasn't at Comrie , just back from three nights glamping in the mud , rain and snow .

You guys never DID get around to mud wrestling LOL I am rather proud of my spoon(s) freshly carved by my own fair hands. I left having met some terrific new peeps, had a giggle with some of the usual loonies and managed to keep the dog from eating the hens (just) .... AND I was not the only lass there, Cols lovely wife joined us for night 2 and Annie for night 3.

Highlights of the long weekend ......... I got to see Cols wee lad make mud angels he gave me a cuddle and I found out he REALLY likes bananas, I danced a sort of punk version of scottish country dancing with charleslockerbie at the flambeaux, and I also seem to have gained a SON in Drew Dunn Respect:lmao:

ONLY on a BCUK meet .... right ???

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!!!

:You_Rock_
