Especially if it starts on 02.02.20 and ends on 20.02.20 ???? That maybe like some kind of end of the world date though.

Having a two and a half week WinterMoot would be cool (no pun intended)
You going to be able to get away from your busy season over there for the WinterMoot?

Hopefully I'll be there for this. Can't make the autumn one because I'm off for half term week a couple of weeks later.

Well the Autumn Moot was great so we are now really looking forward to the Winter one.

A good number have already committed to being there so come along and join in.

We will make the Naughty Corner comfy with wind screening, a big fire and yummies from the pizza oven. The main building has a big toasty wood stove too.

:camping:

We'll make sure there's plenty of firewood, I figure there will be less people that the big summer moot so the same amount of wood should work. I think we'll also keep the camping area smaller and more orientated around the main area and a good evening fire will probably be good as a social area.

We'll make sure there's a throwing spike area as well :)

Hi - long time lurker here. Thinking of coming to this as it's pretty close to me (Bristol). You mention keeping the camping area smaller - do you still think it will be possible to set up a tent and tarp in an area away from others? Not meaning to sound completely antisocial, but would prefer to be able to retreat to relative peace and quiet of my own little space if possible. I don't expect everybody would be crammed into the same space, but not having been before just wonder if you could comment on the space available for those who've not experienced it before. Cheers!

Thought some one else would have spoken up but here goes. As for space available.... there is tons of it !!! As the Winter Moot will be less well attended it makes sense for folk to camp closer to the centre then they would normally. If 100 folk have got there before you in summer you may have to pitch up a bit more then a stones throw from the Loo's. Come winter and the same site has 30 turn up before you and yes you are closer to the Loo's. Having said that the size of the site has not changed, that sweet spot 10 mins walk from the loo is still in the same spot.
In short you WILL be able to find a great spot away from the crowd should you wish that
quiet of my own little space
will be very easy to find rest assured.

Yeah, there's plenty of space and you can camp where you want to, we had a number of people at the Autumn Moot that did exactly what you want to be doing and they loved it.
