A big thank you to Phil for organising this, and to all who attended. It was my first visit to Rough Close and I'm looking forward to the next one.

Thanks to all those who made it along. Good to meet the new faces and also to catch up with those familiar :D

Hopefully those who were ill will make a speedy recovery.

I didn't get home until about 17:00 today. Hopefully all those who came had good trips back home.


... first visit to Rough Close and I'm looking forward to the next one.

It was good to finally meet you, I know how many times you've tried and your determination is appreciated :D


I have a couple of pics, I'll post them momentarily ...

Given the significance of the weekend this Meet fell on, I feel it only right that I lead with this pic.




I forgot to take a pic of my pitch/set up. This isn't it, but it's in a similar vein (the pic is mine, the parts used are the same, the top cover was suspended from a ridgeline rather than a pole)




Friday saw a bit of foraging and processing for the communal area wood pile ...




And Friday's mini wood pile at my pitch ...




Obligatory flame shot from Friday's pitch fire ...




Saturday saw another forage for wood and another mini woodpile ...




And some more flame shots, Saturday ...




A communal area shot ...







Almost ready to fall over and be a warmth donor




I didn't get a pic of Friday or Saturday night's communal fire. But here's Sunday's




And this morning's




And we can't forget the floaty Rowan ~ suspended all weekend, survived us moving around, survived the rain, and was still there when I left the site :D



And the change to the Chapel area (It is now non denominational). I have more current pics of the redeveloped area but not from before the work. So I took a pic of a pic showing them side by side.




Thanks for looking.
