Norwich and Norfolk group new thread!

[RAPPLEBY2000]

and i guess something for afternoonsies too!
depends on how long we stay, but i'm going to take my "supper" too!

by the way, i 've been looking for Iron Pyrites, for ages (the sparking sort) so been looking on beaches for stones that look like lumps of rust, well i found some, tried it and could i get a spark...could i heck!!
then i saw Ray mears try to use it and seemed to have just as much trouble as me! i polished one side of the stone with a wire brush drill attatchment (to clean it) and got a few very red sparks (from the brush ) still haven't managed a spark with a flint though fire seems a bit distant at present! .
I'll bring it along you guy's might be able to help me!

I can only do the 21st.
There's no reason you folks can't get together on the 22nd.

 

[RAPPLEBY2000]

OOOOOOOH DEAR!
i so thought that 21st was a Saturday, well I'm still free both days.

so just to make things clear (sorry, i think it's my fault)
21st is Good Friday (which is a bankholiday) i think this is where it got mixed up)
22nd is a normal saturday(which i'm still happy to do).

Snufkin sad:

My wife has aready comendered the car to see her parents, so we can't easily get to you but Globetrotter and i would still like to meetup if we can!

That would be good. Friday is my usual day off, but with a bit of notice I can rearrange it to another day.
Hope you guys have fun.

 

[RAPPLEBY2000]

Sounds like a plan! Snufkin!

Sorry mate, still trying to find out.

22nd is still ok for me, plus anyone else that's interested. If Lord lurcher isn't available we could always meetup in somewhere like Mousehold heath, or along the old train line.

 

[lord lurcher]

Sorry guys, had a delay on delivery of worktops for the kitchen i'm fitting so work isgoingto run into the weekend, hope we can all have a camp soon!

 

[jojo]

Arrgh. I can't make it either. My daughter is coming home on Friday afternoon and we are having a family weekend before she goes back to Bristol.

I think I heard the weather is going to be 'orrible at the weekend. We'll have to try again later on in the year, then hopefully we can all synchronize with each other AND the weather! Have a good time though guys.

 

[RAPPLEBY2000]

oh well,
probly just as well if the weather is poor,(then whats new it's a bank holiday weekend )

ok a new dates to meet:

how about a later meetup after work say 5-6pm-10pm at bacton woods, so we can still go ahead with our origional plan to have a bit of a chillout in the woods.

do any of these dates sound good? for single days

Friday 28th March (late finish)
Saturday 29th March (not sleep over)
Sunday 30th March(not sleep over)

Friday 4th April (late finish)
Saturday 5th April(not sleep over)
Sunday 6th april(not sleep over)

 

[Snufkin]

I can't do Sundays, but Friday evenings I can do, or Saturdays after 7pm.

 

[RAPPLEBY2000]

WOAH You're a busy man!
how about other days of the week?

todays weather was horrible, plus the inlaws came round for the day

i hid away when i could to do play with kit in my utility room/store.

hopefully tomorrow will be nicer!

 

[RAPPLEBY2000]

ANOTHER HORRIBLE DAY!

it would take a brave bushcrafter to do stuff today!

can the rest of you get back with suitable diary dates to meet?

Weekday evenings I can do after 7pm (by the time I get back from work, get changed, get down the woods...) except Mondays and Wednesdays (cycling).

 

[bushtank]

Sorry, late response from me again I can't do Thursday and Fridays (work all day on these) This weekend, I have no wheels and next weekend my daughter is back from college on half term.. Hopefully, I should soon have a new car, it's been a right PITA not to have one. Public transport around here has been (is) well the only word I can think of to describe is CARP. It take me between 2 1/2 to 3 hours each day, to go from Lowestoft to G Yarmouth and back where I work (10 miles apart) In the car: 40 mn each way despite the traffic! Rant over Soooo, the next couple of weeks I should have a clearer idea of when I'll have free time

Anything decided yet? How you doing Lord Lurcher
