Hi guys, happy new year belatedly. I expect I will be working that weekend although things are now up in the air so I may be lucky. Fingerscrossed, I will confirm asap.

I'm thinking of going to the Suffolk one the week before as well. Anyone else up for it?:camping:
I think it costs £5 each plus a barrow of wood cost shared, etc

From their site

".....
So far List attending is
1. Stu
2. Paul aka Roman Soldier (I want to cook for myself to test kit but willing to help)
3. KIMBOKO aka Nick P Now comfirmed. Shift Changed.
4. Rumcelt
5. Zeon98
6. Tagnut69
7. SJStuart

Plus Posibles
Kev Whitler + 1

I'll be bringing
Coleman Lamp
Table
25ltr Water Carrier
8ltr Dutch Oven + Tripod
Griddle
Large Tarp for Group Shelter

As far as the group meal goes do we want to do it as per norm and each get items, or one person buys the cost split, I am still thinking of something different to a plain stew and thinking about may be a chicken chilli and dumplings, open to suggestions.

There is a Toilet Block, that should be open and water is available from Taps on the site, I will ask for the full shower block to be open.

Of course pics and films being taken is ok...."


I reckon someone is taking a projector and showing films after dark as well

Just another update

I walked to Hethel today and did a recce for the site and it was wet, I suggest anyone sleeping over night either hammock or a raised camp bed, the ground is sodden, I have never seen it so wet.

Kev you will not get your van up the track, Carl it 4 wheel only.

Se you in a week

Bad news and maybe some good news.
I struggled that much at the Suffolk meet (which was good ;)) that I can hardly walk today due to the dreaded Arthritis so I can only do the Saturday.
Other news is that one (at least) of their members is going to try and attend (I asked him to PM you Damascus). WHich news is which....only you can decide ha ha ha (rattling chain effects etc)
