Hell yes I'm up for it, some time when it's moderately warm but not too hot and most importantly it's not raining.

Bonus points if my route there isn't flooded and I manage to arrive on time.

May? September? Both?

I'd like to come along, if I can get away for a weekend.  Any ideas where it'll be - still near Bicester?
Title: Re: UK Meet-up 2015?
Post by: kirk13 on February 11, 2015, 04:32:27 PM
Tony has volunteered to sort out our usual haunt near Bicester,but if anyone else has ideas,we're open to hearing them :pok:

As to dates,I'd opt for sometime when we've got a fighting chance of warm and dry.

Here's a suggestion: We let this run til,say the 20th?,see if we get any other offers on venues,then we look at dates?

I'm up for this in theory, but I've got to keep in mind that I've moved about 2 hours even further North. :doh:

Well if you fancy tracking down a venue a bit further North... :pok:

In theory, it should be a bit easier for me to get time off this year, so long as it doesn't clash with any breaks my boss has planned

Post by: Cupboard on February 11, 2015, 09:19:19 PM
 :rofl:

It's very inconsiderate of you to move even further away Gareth  :whistle:

Does anyone live in the Midlands? I feel sure there must be somewhere round there that would be convenient for people. Or if you wanted to come to Norfolk then I know someone with a campsite we can use.

That said Tony's haunt is rather good... and now I've been there twice I might even remember how to get there! *And*, assuming I manage to get through enough of the things I have planned, I shouldn't need to pitch a tent in the rain this year :)

Ok, here's my submission.  I will say don't make too many plans around me, it is a long drive and I can't say I'll be able to make it at all.  I'll perhaps look at other ways of making it down other than driving.

A few years ago some rather clever satellites with fancy clocks got fired in to space. I like to use them instead of Kirky ;)

The motorway being flooded last year didn't help, and the diversion being flooded also didn't help.

I have a provisional plan of hooking up with Al on the way down.  That way I'm not driving all the 9 hours by myself.  Details to be worked out but it makes it a far more attractive proposition. :)

I'll probably get the train down to Milton Keynes and ride across, but it really depends on how much stuff we're expected to bring with us. What's 'normal'? Just camping gear or do we bring our collections or other entertainment to show/share?

People do tend to bring all their gear with them, but that's only 'cos we like to show off. ;) Just yourself and some camping gear is actually all you need.  As I said to bmot, I've got enough camping gear for anyone to borrow whatever you need anyway (though I might have to be a touch frugal if I'm car sharing with 50ft)

Gareth was faster than me  ::)

I will bring the fire and a few pots/pans so you won't need to carry them, I guess you just need a tent an sleeping bag and a few toys to play with

I'm sure if someone wanted anything we could come up with a 'spare' ?
if travel is hard carrying 'tent' or 'sleeping bag' I'm positive someone could bring one if we knew in advance.
hell some people have turned up with out footwear or coat before now !!! (no names , what happens at the meet stays at the meet)

I'm willing to pick up from stations,airports or deserted beaches within reason if I can (PM me details and we can try to arrange something)

also, just a suggestion, could we all donate towards a 'cheep' second hand large tent , suitable for a club house. pretty sure 'we' could get one at a bootfair (and by 'we' I mean our resident bootfair rust hunter ;) )
if a few of us regulars bung in a fiver it would mount up. then it would save having to borrow from Mark like we did last year (thanks again Mark  :salute:) just a matter of Tony storing it then ;)

Having the big tent was definitely a boon, especially given the heavy rain on the Friday night.  I'd happy chip in for getting something specifically for the meets. :)

I'll probably get the train down to Milton Keynes and ride across, but it really depends on how much stuff we're expected to bring with us. What's 'normal'? Just camping gear or do we bring our collections or other entertainment to show/share?

I'm not so far from MK so I can pick you up from the station  :salute:

If I have a bit of notice I can probably borrow a big gazebo-thing. Like half way between a tent and a miniature marquee.

My parents have a smaller one and I know someone with a couple of bigger ones.
They're not even that expensive to buy new:

:rofl: I haven't had much use out of it and forgot all about it until Tony mentioned air rifles. It's been in a drawer for years. As far as I remember it jammed a lot when i first got it in a trade on the BCUK forum, then I got the hang of it. Glad I've remembered it now though - I might take some pics of it.

If anyone's got a SOG of some description that'd be great to see too.  Probably too much to ask for a Switchplier 2.0 though.

I'm not sure I've got anything much that people will want to see, but was going to bring some gear for some SAK modding (brass rod, some assorted parts, tools and the like).  Will there be any 13 amp sockets available for battery charging?

Does anyone have a first gen Switchplier? And do you still have the Recoil Gareth?

Oh, and do we want any pallet wood this year? We've got stacks and stacks of them in the yard at the moment.

I'd like to have a go with a new model Surge if anyone's got one.

Updating the list of Stuff that we would like to play with:

Condor Pack Golok
Swisstool
Gerber MP600
SAK with GITD scales
SOG - Switchplier + others
A baboon for magentus
Cold Steel Brave Heart
Leatherman Surge - new model
Gerber Recoil
Wooden backstop for targets

Adding the Recoil to the list.  Are we planning on bringing the air rifles etc. again?

Good stuff.  I'll bring the board along then (if Al has room for it in the car that is)

I believe we are :D

Yes and I still have a ton of targets

You saved the ones I :facepalm: missed?  :o

I missed, you shot a damn sight better than me, mind you my 4 year old could have shot better than me that day :facepalm:

I think I missed my targets and scored better in yours (and you were two lanes across from me  :facepalm: )

I'll bring the old version so long as it doesn't get "tested" as it will just break instantly ::) I'm looking forward to seeing the new version, and I'm very interested to know if they are going to cover the warranty on the old one with the new one before I start carrying it  ;)

I meant tools - I couldn't care less what you eat or drink or where you sleep, as long as you don't pinch any of mine ;) - but I wondered what shiny things people were bringing.

There seems little point in me bringing ALL my SAKs (you know what a Climber is, right?) but I though I'd bung some of the mods and some nice alox in the bag, as well as the Switch Plier 2 and some hacked LMs.  Will bring along my Enzo PK70 and Eden 106 (to compare to Kirky's SRM710), and a very nice bike light too.

I can bring my Spydie Persistance and Dragonfly.

Al wanted to see my Higonokami,si I'll bring that,and hopefully a second one that I've got on its way. SRM710 to compare to Chris's one.

Are we shooting again this year? Think I can bring a couple of pistols :think:

Updating the list of Stuff that we would like to play with:

Condor Pack Golok
Swisstool
Gerber MP600
SAK with GITD scales
SOG - Switchplier + others
A baboon for magentus
Cold Steel Brave Heart
Leatherman Surge - new model
Gerber Recoil
Wooden backstop for targets

Adding the Recoil to the list.  Are we planning on bringing the air rifles etc. again?

Good stuff.  I'll bring the board along then (if Al has room for it in the car that is)

Just quoting this so as i don't forget something important.

I should be arriving early tomorrow evening.  There's a slight chance I won't be able to make it as my wife may have to go away for the weekend and I'll be looking after the boy.  I'd bring him with me but I don't really think that playing with guns, knives and open fires would be entirely appropriate for an inquisitive 2-year old.

I'm going in to work first thing because I've got to see someone about 7:30, then I should be have left by 9-ish. I've got some chores to do round here, but will be aiming for mid-afternoon.

Gareth should be arriving at my house around then, and we've got to transfer the stuff between the cars and given him chance to stretch his legs for a bit. Once we've set off, I'd expect it to take us about 2.1/2 to 3 hours depending on roadworks and traffic.

We'll make sure the kettle's on for when you get there Tom  :tu: :D

Was great fun - nice to meet the guys (sparky415, 50ft trad, Gareth, tofty, smashie, cupboard and Kirky) and always good to get to camp out. Lots of nice toys to play with too, I'm sure I didn't get the time to see everything which was a shame.

Big thanks to everyone, especially Sparky for arranging the site and bringing the tea and fire pit. :tu:

I was only there for a few hours but in that time we had a shooting competition - well done 50ft who was kinda shooting blind but won, I saw some great Syph and Hiraethus mods, some great modding from the attendees (including a sister for my Woodsman from Gareth) some beautiful hand-made knives, and most importantly, got to meet some excellent people.

Thanks Tofty for the MOT bits and pieces (the spanner is on my key ring, the big belt one is now my tactical coaster in my office, my daughter has nabbed the chip, and the dangler is being used as a... well, a dangler.

Cheers for having me and see you next year!

Back home, sun burned to hell and knackered.

Good to see the guys again and to meet the new chaps.

The result of the shooting may have been a bit different from what you remember Luke.

(http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07/19/c4086e0d09e46474fd0111956586a11b.jpg)

A pretty impressive comeback from last years result where I came last. I'm more convinced than ever that you couldn't hit a barn from the inside with that rifle, sorry Peter.

In a case of what could possibly go wrong?

This on the fire at 0330 seemed like a good idea at the time. I gave up waiting for it to set fire to the ground at 0430 and 50ft, being the sensible one stayed up and made sure that didn't happen. 0800 it looked like this

Right, now the boy's in bed I've had a chance to catch up with thoughts about the meet.

As said, great to meet the guys - and sorry I missed you magentus.  Fantastic to get chance to get my hands on so many cool toys - Surge*, Pulse, Flair, Mini, PST, PST II, MP600, MP426 (50ft's knifeless MP400), PUG (Kirky's knifeless Wave), lots of lovely folders (too many to remember but Smashie's Fantoni, Sparky's refurbed brass and stag car boot find, some Liong Mah models and a few different Spydercos spring to mind), a pair of Syph customs (91mm and 93mm), lots of torches, an air pistol (I didn't really have time to do much shooting).  Thanks to Tofty and Smashie for their very generous gifts too.

And always great to talk smurf about multis with others. :drink: :D

* I'd asked someone to bring a Surge as I've been hankering after one for a while.  I had a little accident in a gear shop on the way down and brought my own. :D

To be honest - I went home disappointed. Unless it was hidden I didn't see hide nor hair of any chicken and lard. I cried myself to sleep.
