Hugo, i'll trade you biscuits/nuts/teabags for a pole if they are fairly heat resistant. I suspect the resin used might burn when used as a blow poker though.

 

[Elen Sentier]

Mmmmmmmmmmm I like ginger biscuits, blow poker is yours.

Will get cooking ... and check on how many folks there are coming.

What is a blow poker?

It's a hollow metal tube that allows you to blow air at the seat of a reluctant fire. It means you can concentrate the air where it is needed. Very effective.

 

[Hugo]

You could use the metal end nearest the fire and hope for the best but it won't beat the Monkeyboy magnetic blow poker.
I'd go nuts for a biscuit, it's yours.

 

[Neumo]

I am looking forward to this meet & it is filling up nicely. It will be nice to see some old faces again and to meet the new ones. Hopefully it will still be as warm as it has been lately. Am off to the gamefair this weekend, so may have some new toys to play with.

 

[Hugo]

Looking forward to this months meet, good amount of folk coming and good weather as well, what more could we ask for.
I'll try and bring some green wood for the spoon carvers amongst us.
Got a new DD frontline hammock to use so hoping for a good nights swing.
See you there on Friday peeps.

 

[Elen Sentier]

REQUEST - pse may I see other folk's hammocks? I'm still a touch uncertain about my WBRR - which will be coming and is available for anyone to see/try - and would very much appreciate seeing other hammocks. I know there are some good ones coming and people with far more experience than me so would like to learn more.

I'm also brining my DD Travel hammock too ... a foot in each hammock

 

[Hugo]

Hi Elen, I have yet to try out my new hammock but hope to use it on Wednesday whilst out with my bumble buddies, the one that I usually use I made myself from two layers of rip stop nylon, that will now be used as a sit hammock.
Plenty of people at camp to help you rig yours up I should think.

 

[Dave-the-rave]

I'm digging out me waterproofs for the weekend.

 

[Dark Horse Dave]

I think I'd better give this one a miss to give me a chance to sort out all our stuff for the Bushmoot.

Have a good one!

How many am I making ginger biscuits for? Looks like there's 10+ of us, is that right? 2 dozen bickies should do it

 

[veryWildbill]

Elen, when calculating the required number of biscuits it may be worth bearing in mind that I make Ray look skinny

You mean you could eat all 2 dozen ??? I'll try to make sure there are enough

You do know Hugo is coming, don't you?

 

[Elen Sentier]

You do know Hugo is coming, don't you?

goes out to buy another ton of flour and ginger ...

 

[Hugo]

Don't go out of your way Elen, these boys always have plenty of things to eat, anyway it's a grand gesture you are making and I thank you for my biscuit in advance.

 

[spandit]

...I thank you for my 6 or 7 biscuits in advance.

edited for clarity

 

[Hugo]

No mention of tea bags then, I will bring plenty just in case for you.

 

[Mesquite]

Just sorting out my supplies for the weekend.

Is there any plans for a communal meal on the Saturday?
