Yorkshire meetup ??

[EdS]

There's only two sorts of people in t'world:

1) Them that's from South Yorkshire; and
2) Them that wishes they were from South Yorkshire.

You could always move over the border Scruff - you'd be eligible as an honourary Southie in about 10 years...

Rrrrrrrrat!

No such place a South Yorkshire - its all part of the WEST Riding.

Anyway its all the wrong side of the Tees althoug hmy folks don't see it that way, damn North Yorkies

All this is academic guys - There is only one colour of rose that matters - the same one that our great country uses as well!

:swordfigh

Coincidence - I think not!

 

[spamel]

The only reason they use the red one is because the white wouldn't show up on a white background! So the red was second choice, sorry to put you on a downer!

 

[EdS]

Strictly the English Rose is red with white edges to the petals

Strictly the English Rose is red with white edges to the petals

But mainly red!

So the red was placed above white then ..... with the explicit implication that we are better, therefore placed atop of any pile ......

Either colour is better than what the rest have (gotta make peace before i come over)

Count me in for a meet dates depending.

I think your getting confused the English rose of which you speak (aka. the Tudor Rose) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Tudor_rose.svg is White at the heart!

Anyhoo what news good Shewie?

 

[Shewie]

Not heard owt yet scruff

 

[firebreather]

All joking aside its good to see a bit of friendly banter about where is best (this side of the hills obviously ) without it falling into an angry free for all :BlueTeamE .

Ok you got me on the rose but where did that yellow fluff in the middle come from

Greg

 

[redcollective]

Just to say - I'm a possible for this as well.

 

[Shewie]

Ah welcome to the skirmish Stu

Good to have another white on board


We might be able to take a night walk if we`re still relatively sober and see those badgers I mentioned in my first ever posts. There`s a chance of deer and fox on the way too.

Any room left around the fire for another white rose wearer?

Erm I'm a bit of an imposter in these parts (I was born in Papua New Guinea!!!), though my old dad is yorkshireman - he's from the east ridings.

It'd be grand to see the badgers - I'm working hard on getting a pass out. We'll see what the girls here at home say (Mrs Redcollective and the little one).

Very interested - dates and SHMBO permitting.

Before this thread turned into the battle of the roses I mentioned I was trying to get us in at my permission for a regular meetup.

Well the good news is we`ve got the green flag

I suggested to the landowners that we`d start with around 8 - 12 of us and see how we get on, then look to increasing that number later depending on interest.


So let`s get some dates down for the first "Yorkshire Meet" and then find out who`s up for it.


Incase you missed the link first time round it`s here http://www.blackhillscampsite.org.uk/welcome.htm

There is an online calendar on the site so we can see when it`s quiet. I have just noticed though that there`s a fair bit of refurbishment going on over the next six months, we could either offer to help out a little or just get out of there early doors.

At the moment I`m doing call-out every three weeks so I probably won`t make it those weekends, that might change though and I can always swap with someone at work.

Its not a war just a minor skirmish

Great news about the site.
Let us know when you are thinking about date wise and if work and cash allow count me in. Thats if I am still allowed up over the moors after this thread.:Wow: :Wow: :Wow:

Okay a few dates which I think would be suitable either because I`m not on call or there`s nothing going on at the site.

Saturday 23rd February - There is stuff going on during the day but an evening meet (17:00) could be good

Saturday 1st March - nothing going on this week

Saturday 15th March - Evening meet again

Saturday 22nd March - nothing going on again

Saturday 5th April - nothing on again but a bit close to SWMBOs birthday

1st or 22nd March is best for me - 15th is the weekend of the Outdoor show at the NEC (I'm going on the Friday, but I guess some people will probably go on the weekend...?)
I wouldn't dare suggest you incur the wrath of SWMBO - you should save the brownie points for when you really need them...

Two more interested, if there's still room. any date ok.

Cheers
