You know I'm sure I came in and posted in this thread ages ago but clearly it was all just a dream  :think:

Anyway, I thought I should amend the spelling of my name. It's not "+1" it's "HedgeKid"

So:

May 21/22
Nuphoria
Hedgekid
Ruby (mascot)
Sparky
Gareth
Neil
Zag

What's this archery tuition you speak of Mr Sparky? Not sure I have the time to book the mastectomy but I'd love to have a go if it doesn't have a hefty price tag attached to it (the archery not the mastectomy)

Looking forward to the meet  :tu:

Sorry guys I'm going to have to bow out of this one, things have got real messy this end and theres some major issues I have to deal with in three separate areas of my life. It's a shame as I'd have loved to come, but I'm sure there'll be another opportunity at a later date  :tu:

Have fun, and keep those arrows pointed forward  :cheers:

Perhaps offering lard and recreational flogging would bring up the numbers?

Damn I was looking into getting a ppp yesterday too  ::) better be more alert in future.

come to the MT meet-up and you can have a play with mine. :tu:

Sounds filthy  :rofl: I was seriously considering it but SWMBO is hassling me for a holiday, so i'll have to see what dates we are away for before I commit.
would this be a bad time to bring up the lard and flagellation?  :think: ;)

Joking aside, it'd be nice to see you there, hope you can make it. :)

I've often wondered why everyone want's to grease me up and whip me............i'm gonna put it down to sheer good looks  :rofl:

I shall look further into accommodating it somehow, it'll be rather enjoyable i'm sure. who doesn't enjoy a little debauchery?

NB/ I figured i'd move this here I didn't want to scare our fellow multitoolers who are not accustomed to ritual beatings and our stiff upper lips.

I have got a pile of 'poor quality on special offer wood' sitting in the back of my car
(A few of the top bits and tons of the bottom bits)
Enough to keep us warm for one evening and hopefully enough for breakfast aswell
People are welcome to bring more if they like  :salute:

I also have a biggish lump we can throw axes at

What time are people planning to arrive?  I've got a good way to drive so I'll not likely be there much before 2-2.30 at the earliest but I believe Tony has access from mid morning.

Well I think I might be heading down on Friday evening and stopping half way there, that way I won't be knackered before I even arrive and I'm only doing a few hours in the car at a time. :)  Need to check on the logistics with my work and, more importantly, my wife. :D

Gareth you'd be welcome to stay at mine on the way down but I thin that as Nottingham is only 2 miles north of the meet it may not be anything like a midway stopover.

I hope you all have a good meetup, I was tempted to down tools and surprise you all on the Saturday night but work has gotten in the way and I need to be in Leicester for 8.30am Sunday, I don't think i'd be good for anything work like the morning if the night before is like last years with you lot

If it's any consolation mate, the bathroom is 4ft x 5ft and that includes bath, shower, toilet, sink and washing machine (although techincally the washer is actually in the wardrobe)  :rofl:

Nearly time.  We're a bit short on numbers this year.  More a mini-meet this time but I think that gives us an excuse to fit another one in later in the year ;)

I'm looking forward to the en-forced down time.  If I start nodding off don't take it personal just prod me with the  :pok: :D

Can I share someone's stove by the way?


If there's anything I'm meant to be bringing for anyone please PM/email me and remind me :tu:
