Swindon's First HoP meet!

yay oli!!!

yay NON!!

YAY!!

sorry, i really dont have anything good to say

There's always room for an Oli!

Oh yeah!

I sooo wanna come. On the other hand can i afford to come back to Swin-hole three weekends in a row?!?
Such a dilemma!!!
I do so miss you all

ok, a barrage of questions for you... so actually it doesn't take so long from cardiff, one hour on the train but to swindon train station. question is how far is it from this place, is there a closer one? and will anybody be sober enough to pick me up about 19:30 ish on the saturday night?

ooh and do i still get this fantabulous vegan saturday night meal arriving at that time and staying for just one night? do you have to book also or is it all arranged that people can turn up whenever for however long?

LSF is a 10min car journey from the station. We will be able to find someone to pick you up, probly end up being me . . .

You don't need to officially book, as there is loads of space. So, yeah, just turn up whenever.

there shall be food for you on sat night . . .

Hi Jake!
Ummmm, i'm that girl that came to your club at the beginning of the summer and then saw you around at the Big Green. Remember? (with dreads! If that helps?)
Me and my friend would love to come along, sounds great. Is there any room left at the inn? he he
thanks
wenna xxx

Ummm, I am still working on coming for at least some of the weekend . . . and am still pestering the rossco will keep you upto date.

Sounds like it is to good to miss

JtJ, if you pick me up i'll buy you a pint, so you don't feel too put out or chocolate, or whatever you want, within reason, i'm not splashing out on a lamborghini or owt....

and matthew, it is compulsory that you come and rossco too, i will help with the pestering if necessary, if i can make it up there for the sat night/sunday, so can you, it's the least you can do, and you know how flaky i am!!

due to me maybe having passed my test and considering i dont drink i dont mind giving people lifts to and from the station. xxx

aww good luck with your driving test vixen!

We have a couple of other 'activities' to do . . .

1. Wassailling the apple orchard with fire and cider!!!!!

2. Imbolc - The Festival of Renewal. Imbolc is one of the great fire festivals of the year, the festival of the abiding goddess, Brigid, the goddess of fire and inspiration! So, earth candles will be lit, and fire will be spun!

I'm getting well excited now! I will put a renewed list of attendees up at some point. And if people are driving, could you let me know, and if you will be around Sat day for a trip to avebury . . .

Nice . . .

woah! I was gonna make a list of all the people who have said they are coming but there's loads so i cant be bothered! sorry.

right ive decided im coming! this sounds too good to miss!!!

i think nick might be able to drive people if we're all taking trips to somewhere, dont know what time we'll be there sat day though

hello i'm nick

Unfortunately, my aunt died last friday and the funeral is on the Friday (4th).

and so I must move to the "possibles" list.

aw, im sorry to hear that jon. there will be a space for you if you decide to come at any point of the weekend.

hi nick! are you driving from exeter? will you have any space in your car? I believe yoni wanted a lift from anywhere near bideford and exeter is a hell of a lot closer to bideford than swindon is!

and i dont spose you've hooked upp with ninja dave at all have you?

check ya'll later . . .

Hi,
Any space left for one more to join the party? I'm an Irish girl living in Salisbury and haven't seen a juggler or firespinner in the five months i've been here...i miss the purty lights and shiny happy people

we still have space. especcially for someone who hasnt seen any shiny happy people for 5 months

Emma - I found this . It'll give you a rough idea. Basically we're trying to get rid of all the bad spirits of winter so we have good apples next season. it's quite fun and an excuse to drink nice cider

(don't worry about the shotgun bit. we don't do that. we do fire)

Put me on the possibilities for the saturday night

I like apples!

AHHHHH WILL MIGHT BE GOING!!!! xxx

Yipee!!! I should be able to make it down before fri evening munchies and stay til Sun, sounds like it'll be a kic ass party, lookin forward to meeting u all

ello ppl, i am driving from torquay through exeter, the journey according to the aa route guide is 136.6 miles, if i were to go via bideford it would make it 219 miles! thats one way. goign via Salisbury on the other hand that only addes on 18 miles. that one might be possible you see. i think that i will have 2 seats in the car spare but whoever is there will have to share with a large amount of clubs, staffs and two unicycles. on and some several sets of poi. oh and no i have not met ninja dave i dont think.

i'm happy to get a train to exeter if i can get a lift from there.
and don't mind sharing seats with clubs,staff etc.

Hi nickwidd,
what a lovely friendly offer but theres a regular bus from Salisbury which is easy for me- but i anticipate some confusion when i get to Swindon and would be glad of a lift from the bus stop if anyones free when i get there!
