Red,

That's the day before the XMAS bash so I'll probably be travelling up to that on that day

Wayne you have an unrelated PM.

[pibbleb]

I'm not going to get involved with the decision making as I'll need to check my wifes rota once a decision has been made anyway.

But I'm happy to camp or drink just let me know dates.

Paul

 

[jasons]

would it be ok to come along.

 

[ESpy]

Probably not, due to the Christmas moot.

I don't know the Chase Inn, could be interesting?

 

[British Red]

OKay scratch that date then

 

[bushwacker bob]

The location sounds good.(I think I know how to find 'The Chase')
How about Friday 1st December?

 

[British Red]

Works for me - 7pm anyone?

(I'll bring all I owe you mate )

Hi Gents,

I've viewed your thread and if i can do it I like to attend whatever your up to - if thats ok

I was trying to work out where the meet might be and it would appear that you are gonna meet at Walthams Chase - not been able to find it on either google earth or the aa route planner. Could you please give me an idea of where it is near so I can work out if it is viable?

Best regards,

Phil.

 

[JonnyP]

I should be able to make it.....

Thanks Red,

Just done an aa route planner and it looks like a 222mile and 5 hour round trip - perhaps a bit to far to go for a lemonade, packet of crisps and a chat - although I'd love to put some faces to some names. Perhaps an overnighter or weekend trip in the New Year or Spring then?

Cheers,

Phil.

Waltham chase is here the pub The Chase (used to be The Fountain) is just outside the village to the north and is on the main road B2177 if you zoom on this map to OS size you can see it marked.

TMKTC,

Sounds good - we'll work something out! I'm sure either we'll have a South meet or I'll send you some other meet up stuff for Feb

Red,

That would be great! :You_Rock_

We are getting one of the Tundra 8 Lavvus with stove so if it would be ok to bring SHMBLT and my son we'd love to attend

I've got a couple of trips planned for next year. Going on Islay Journeyman with Jeremy Hastings next June and taking my dad on the Ray Mears Fundamental Bushcraft in August. I'd really like to get a better handle on all things bushcrafty before then and I'd love some help and advise on setting up my tarp, hammock, underblanket before August - so I hope that there will be plenty of opportunities before then.

Cheers,

Phil.
