2010 UK Meet - Date and Venue Confirmed - Bookings now accepted!

[Benner]

Yep it's all good to go 

[DaveK]

Good news boys - we don't want any "failed to shows" due to breakdowns

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Are we all fixed then?

Or are we still waiting on people

[DaveK]

I think we're pretty much going to have the field to ourselves - a couple of stragglers probably won't make any odds

[DaveK]

Folks,

We had a list going of people who are / are hoping to attend this meet, but I'm buggered if I can find it 

I spoke to the site owner yesterday to make sure all is still on, but I need to confirm the number of pitches ASAP. (Your fiver covers your pitch, so two sharing is just a fiver)! This to include those that might be coming, borrowing tents etc. So with apologies for knowingly repeating this:


Definitely coming - pitch needed:

DaveK
Mike LOTS
Neil
Neil's big tent
Gareth
Da ladies in da camper van
Rich
Nick


Definitely coming - NO pitch needed (including daytrippers)!:
Ben
Zag
John
?


Help me fill in the blanks guys This would also be a good place to list anything you might need to borrow in the way of tents, equipment, get a lift etc.......

[Benner]

I'm not happy that I am now on Mike's pitch.  I want him to be on my one. 

[Neil]

How come I need two pitches?  I have lost a bit of weight you know 

I think he's just out to wind us up Ben 

[Benner]

There's a name for people like him. 

[Neil]

Yeah  and it helps take larger boats in and out of ports

[John]

Put me down as being there tho I don't know ATM how I'm getting there and also where I'll be sleeping  

That said I do have the little survival book Mike sent me so I maybe able to build a three storey block of flats out of leaves and twigs  ,going by the book it should only take me a couple of hours,hell! that way I could  accommodate the lot of us

[DaveK]

One for the tent that you'll sleep in, one for the big communal tent you're bringing (or did I misunderstand  ). You won't be having to stump up the extra pitch fee - I have that covered

Put me down as being there tho I don't know ATM how I'm getting there and also where I'll be sleeping 

That said I do have the little survival book Mike sent me so I maybe able to build a three storey block of flats out of leaves and twigs  ,going by the book it should only take me a couple of hours,hell! that way I could  accommodate the lot of us

So you want a pitch? I think there might still be some room in Mike and Ben's tent

I can lend you a tent if you need one - just say the word

[DaveK]

I'm not happy that I am now on Mike's pitch.  I want him to be on my one. 

I thought you were sharing with Mike - no? 

[Gareth]

John I can pick you up on the way down and bring an extra tent and sleeping bag if you'd like.  There'll also be room for one more in my spare tent so if anyone needs the crash room (and doesn't mind sleeping with John ) just shout out.  I can also provide spare sleeping bags for anyone who needs one.

He's still miffed that I didn't put out last time

[DaveK]

Ah - a domestic huh?  'Nuff said

Thanks Gareth your a gent  as for anyone crashing out with me it's fine,I've only been known to swing my kukri in my sleep ONCE and that was a weeeeek ago also note I never snore,ass burp or speak in my sleep    

[Neil]

Dave I'll be sleeping in a side pod of the big tent so only one pitch required

[DaveK]

Gotcha! The guy did mention that if any of the tents were bigger than 2 or 3 berth, the pitch fee might go up a bit, but that's cool - I have it covered. Ben can pay 

So. That leaves things looking like this then:

Definitely coming - pitch needed:

DaveK
Mike LOTS
Neil (in big tent)
Gareth
Da ladies in da camper van
John
Rich ?
Nick ?


Definitely coming - NO pitch needed (including daytrippers)!:

Ben

He's still miffed that I didn't put out last time

He's such a tease...

[Gareth]

It's certainly going to be snug in Mike's Bivi bag.

[Neil]

And sweaty 

[Benner]

And stinking of Pot Noodles

[Neil]

And stinking of Pot Noodles and lard

 

[Gareth]

And stinking of Pot Noodles and lard

 

ewwww...

[Benner]

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

[Spork, Lord of Lime Jello!]

I just knew Lard would be mentioned sooner or later...

[Gareth]

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

You're willing to share?  my lucky day.

[Benner]

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

You're willing to share?  my lucky day.

For you mate?  Anytime. 

[Gareth]

Shucks Ben, now I'm feeling all warm and fuzzy.
