Yoni and Jen don't be counting your sleeps before your monkeys have hatched..... or some such well known saying! Nothing is set in stone yet. Let's just wait until Mags or someone else in cornwall has had time to organise something.

oh dear........ oh dear o dear
couldnt agree more - not another one of those falmouth threads where everyone says when they want it........... please
just wait.......
And for all you newbies out therethat have heard of this meet - it can be very random, very un concrete as far as location and date goes........... however i should point out that all the people who go to falmouth will also be at PLAY 2 this year.......
oh yeh - whenever that may be
ok so i should also say that all the falmouths have "feckin rocked"
as my above line makes seems to diss it a little

This thread needs to go back into chat. A proper thread can be started up with the right dates and times put in the first post when all the details have been confirmed. This thread is just going to confuse people.

Yer right, it would be better in chat.
OK. The situation is thus:
Fal5 (as it shall be) will be taking place on the Easter bank holiday weekend, as yes, this is the week before the BJC. A friend of ours is organising the BJC and you all need to come. More info on that is found here.
We currently have no location for Fal5, but trust me that between me and Beth and Bird and the other Cornish types, a location WILL be found, and yes, Mr Strugz is quite correct, the whole thing will thoroughly ROCK.
I will endeavour to have it all nailed down by the time we get to 30 sleeps. I appreciate this doesn't leave much time for those of you who need to book time off work, but rest assured that no matter where we go to play, it will definitely be that weekend. Dates on this one are fixed in stone.
WHAT WE NEED:
A field/campsite for 200+ people.
A beach (preferably)
Some wood. (Got a few ideas there.
)Now, how hard can that be to organise eh? Even for me?
I'm on the case people. As usual anyone with questions/advice/original insults can get me on 07929 611696 or thru PM.
Play hard.

So 14th to the 17th of April? Or will it start on the Saturday, the 15th?
Damn, I'm excited now!
Anyone want another epic lift from the Lake District?
I should be bringing a friend of my own this time! After much consideration, I find that the view is worth the asphyxiation.

Can I add an Asda for breakfast and trolley balancing action on the list of stuff we need?
I might be able to make it now, I've got to sort out some stuff with work, but it's looking more likely
But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

We need some rails, or walls for me to jump over too. Thanks!
In a pinch, cars will also do.

Usually, Falmouth starts on the Thursday and runs til the monday morning, however, cos of the BJC I'm thinkin it would make more sense to start on the Friday night. And go all week.
Thoughts?

Yes, walls and rails are good. Cars are more of a challenge and involve more bounce. Oh and I notice you have a cake next to your name Meg. Happy Birthday
Could somebody stop the room please... I'd like to get off

My sole concern is that it last as long as possible! the downside is that I won't (once again) be able to come to the BJC. So Falmouth it is!
After much consideration, I find that the view is worth the asphyxiation.

Only one problem with Friday... is any public transport running, as it will be Good Friday a public holiday. Other than that I have no objections.

I'll see what I can do... I may or may not be driving from York, rather than Cumbria... not sure yet how that'll affect my route. Get back to you soon!

There has to be snow somewhere in the world in April and some of it's bound to be on a down hilly slopey bit of land that you can slide down.

Yay.. I booked ime off work and will be there
Sethis I met you for 1 brief moment at the last falmouth and look forward to meeting you again after our many delightful discussions
I got the WHOLE week off but will be driving down on the friday with luck...bu I want a new toy before then and a bit of practice.
I actually plan o do some spinning at this meet instead of hiding from the rain
I've even learnt some of this poi stuff people keep on about on this site (I know strugz I feel dirty, no need to point and laugh I've seen you juggling )*starts saving for copius volumes of parafin to watch go up in smoke
* A couple of balls short of a full cascade... or maybe a few cards short of a deck... we'll see how this all fans out.
