Hey Guest, Early bird pricing on the Summer Moot (29th July - 10th August) available until April 6th, we'd love you to come. PLEASE CLICK HERE to early bird price and get more information.
That's Great news Ben, put me down for a visit with you. I would suggest that we keep the 24th date at Orchards, and go for an other date here...
.what's the access like?, or is it a walk in.
It's behind my brothers field that he keeps horses in. Would have to probably be one car. Enough room for 4 people tops.
Also have to climb over a small fence which is there to keep horses in. Plenty of firewood, small fire only.
Hi All
Ben that is fantastic news re the camping, I am up for the 24th.
I was thinking about buying some Wayfaire food packs, you get shipping free with orders over £50.00 anyone interested?
Regards
Rum

Used to use them years ago along with raven meals..... hope they are better now...I'll stick with my sausage for the mo, things are better with a sausage in them ,lol.
Thats good news , it looks like a bit of a clean up is required as well, when you thinking about going Ben?
Yeah lil clear up probably be needed in order to set up, don't want to be to close to river. I might be down the yard this weekend with my brother, doing more chopping of trees, I'll see If I can leave a small pile for us to use, so we'll have some ready to hand. Won't be camping there to the following week at the earliest as I'm working this Saturday. I'll get more pictures as well.
Fishing isn't permitted from the other side of river and my brother got a long stretch so will be the only ones who can fish. Shame the whole 8 acres isn't woodland, otherwise we'd be sorted.
I'm still trying to talk to a few farmers down near capel st mary, see if we can get permission there as one farmer got bout 6 bits of big woodland down there.

If it sleepable with out a clear we could have a sat night there, and do some work on it that afternoon/morning.
Hi Ben and Stu
Let me know when you are up for camping and I will come along.
About the wayfaier food I don't think they are to bad, but that is just my opinion.
each unit is £3.99 you have choice of about 18 meals and 3 afters
I like the all day breakfast
The also do a hot food kit for £5.49 ( re in an emergence do fire cant cook still have hot food.
As I said I am going to order some but any order over £50.00 gets ship free so that is about 12.5 units worth, any takers?

Oh yeah, forgot to mention stu, it is possible to set up without a clear up but think its a bit boggy atm due to the excessive rain last few days. Hopefully dry soon. Can either have a stealth camp in woods following Saturday If a few wanna go but if it's me you and rum we could test by the river.
If weather not good next week then I suggest Forrest.

Its Ok, Quite a cosy site, with some deep water ponds and a river quite a slope to the camp site down to the rive small arera of trees, the loo we had to use was in an out house to the main house as theother were shut, quite wet under foot apart from inbetween the trees, apart from that not much could be said we were the only ones there, shop was not open and the owner was not there for most of the time we were.
Well next Sunday is my birthday so a night out would be great... yeah a camp somewere would be good or a night by the river. we could go back to were Tony, Nick and I went if wanted as well as that was not a bad clearing, easy to get to.
This Sat and Sunday I am busy with the kids.
