Jaysurfer - Think everyone will be willing to travel a little bit, and sure amongst ourselves we can organzie some lift share.
Do you need to check with anyone if its OK for a bit of a meet up?
Don't know how many people will come out for this one so it may just be a sedate affair to meet up for a beer and chin-wag.

No i don't need to check with anyone. Both woodlands are communal areas for the people of the local shire's. I approached the copse committee previously with intentions to do the same with Scouts and they said i was welcome to do that sort of thing, Overnight camp and cook anytime i wanted and the woods were there to be used!
Anyone is more than welcome to come up at some point n see what they think / have a walk round and the woods. The good bit is that if there is alot of people then the two woods are only bout a mile apart so could always split into two but would be better to keep together.
As i said before neither woods have toilet or water access, the woods are used by other people so may see people around but during the day i would ask that any wood is retrieved from the floor - i don't really want people asking me why I was up there with people chopping down trees when all we were doing was sawing off a branch lol The trouble with village gossip unfortunately.

Jay , This sounds ideal
Why don't you pick a date that suits you and then we can post up.
Even if it turns out to be a smaller gathering it will good to get out.
Water wise, we'll have to see how many are going and then sort out some logistics for bringing water onto site.
What village are the woods near? want to have peek on google map.

Well I can do any weekend really guys....
I've just got back from Glastonbury (got work in the morning!!!!) How about we say one wknd out of the next two.
You lot can decide - My house is only a mile from the woods so water isn't a problem as long as people have things to put the water in lol
I have a collection of knives, saw's and axes that people are welcome to try out / practice with.
Anyone fancy doing a group meal for the sat night??
Considering i live a mile away i can pretty much provide whatever we need.
The woods are in between Sparkford and Queen Camel and the 2nd location is right next to the A303 above Queen Camel.
Not very bushcrafty i know but thee is also a Mc Donalds (not for me) but just in case any novices wanna join us but don't wanna cook at camp lol
Lookin forward to it already... let me kno when is good for you lot

So people can get a rough idea here is a google map
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&s...27495,-2.574878&spn=0.015682,0.03665&t=h&z=15
The woods are the two wooded areas in the centre of the map there is literally only a field in between them.... I'll find out if there is footpath between the two.

Thought i'd start a list of people interested in coming to our (primative and novice) get together.... Thought if i started it here and got people who have been pro-active in this discussion first refusal and then we can start a new post just for this meet and open the invite out to others.
Date is still to be confirmed - I get the impression we'd all like to do it in the next couple of weeks tho?
So we have....
Jay (surfer)
Craven
Tee Dee
