Here it is folks, you've been incredibly patient, and let's be honest, you knew we wouldn't let you down.
Fal5 will not be taking place in Falmouth, instead the ever resourceful Ms Maus has secured us a sweeet spot to stay. It's a little further west, but be sure it's worth the tiny bit of extra effort.
The dates are Friday 14th April - Monday (Tuesday) 17th (18th) April.
We will be staying here and that means we will be spending a lot of time on this beach.
Campsite checks in at the bargain price of £4 per person per night, and they have the usual shower/toilet blocks.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO TELEPHONE THE CAMPSITE TO BOOK
The Wiki list (so's we know who's coming) is here
Nearest town and train station is Hayle so make sure not to go to my house by mistake, as I won't be there.
Any questions?

Just scouting around for more lift possibilities from the Northwest area or ANYONE above the midlands (I'll travel)
I have a possibility but chances are it'll fall through (just in case)

Dunno if he'll feel comfortable with a random stranger asking him for lifts! Might as well ask him to pick up a hitchhiker! (which will no doubt turn out be me anyway!

Neon, can you get to gloucester area as Matty B said he had a lift going. There's no point being shy if you actually want to get to cornwall.

Neon, there is no need to be shy. We are HoPpers, one big happy family! Think of Dunc as a Great Uncle you just haven't met yet. Besides Dunc is one of the friendliest people you could ever wish to meet.
If you are still a bit shy of him when you meet him, try the age old trick of imagining that he is naked. We have all seen his naked bum and it ain't all that
Sorry Dunc

Me too Bryn...I think the general "goings on" are just to enjoy yourself though
I am a bit worried about meeting so many people, it's the kind of thing that makes me anxious- but I'm sure I have nothing to worry about

Brian Blessed has a fab voice! Can I bagsie him to read me bedtime stories?
For all you people that have never been to a meet before and are a little nervous of meeting up with so many new people in one go I have this message.
I know exactly how you feel. The first meet I went to I was really worried that I might not fit in, that people might not like strangers coming into their group and that I might just be overwhelmed by so many new faces. All my fears turned out to be unfounded. You will fit in. We are all different but we have spinning in common and thats what bonds us. You are not a stranger, you are a HoPper and part of our happy family of spinners. You will not be overwhelmed by so many new faces, because as I said before we are not new faces just family members you haven't met before.
Come down and enjoy the sand, the sea, and most of all the spinning.
Feed me Chocolate!!! Feed me NOW!

And the burning Skully... don't forget the burning
*bounces in excitement* ->
After much consideration, I find that the view is worth the asphyxiation.

I may disagree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

NOOOOO!!!Written by: Mags The Jedi
Correct, and NOOOOO! Bring drums, guitars, musical instruments. Stereo's suck ass. This is NOT a rave.
So nyerrr.
Yay for proper music!
However, what about music for the campsite during the day? I thought it was nice at bristol jug.con being able to sit in the sun with some manu chao or cat empire boppin away in the background . . .

Thanks Steaks I've already PM Pete on reccommendation from Jen although if Cantus decides to go I can't take it as he asked first. Fair enough really.
Matty B Thanks for the offer though I'm thinking Cheltenham is a LITTLE too far (then again i was looking at Train prices to Hayle - £122!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I'm walking starting now!
Thanks Skully for a a vote of confidence in all HOPpers. And for the vivid imagery...
Dunc - I have a VERY good imagination....
