ok, so this in in it's infancy but does anyone want to meet up in Falmouth sometime? When it's a bit warmer but before all the young students toddle off back home for the summer so I suggest sometime round end of May/early June time.
I guess so far we have the "to be confirmed" attendance from..

thats an old pic of meanpirth, but yes you get the point!
nice sandy beach, a lil stoney section as teh tides roll out, but you get that on all beaches, then after that (if we are spinning while the tides out) we have smooth sands!
it has a hard sandy carpark, for parking cars and sorting out eqp.

I've decided to be there for the whole weekend and past Monday night and just not bother with work until after Glasto has happened. Lots of mates in Brizzle should be able to put up with me (put me up?) on Tuesday night before we set off to sunny Pilton community performance arts gathering

Aim high and you'll know your limits, aim low and you'll never know how high you could have climbed.

If you see someone waving at people while going the other way on the motorway - that'll be me!
that'll make it twice we've failed to meet up!

ok checked the details of Pannance Mill Farm located here
Non-Https Image Link
It's cheap as chips. Basically if you take a car it's £4 per night with your tent or if you're just travelling by foot etc its £3 per adult per night. Bargain!!
Check more details here to see if it takes your fancy. It seems a little familty orientated to me but that doesn't matter if we spend most of our late time either in the pub or on the beach

Deffo Meanporth the first night, then play it by ear and see what we find during the next day etc. We may aswell move our playing around so long as it's still within staggering distance back to the tent and isn't a horrid stoney-type beach.
