After careful consideration (not to mention my best attempts at blagging it) I'm not gonna be able to get up to this one after all! sorry guys! Hope you all have a blast!

My state of mind is not yours to define!

There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

oooh is something happening on friday arvo then?? for sure? anyone want to suggest a time and place?

hopefully becci will come as we are meant to be going to see the levellers night before, but my phone's been nicked so i haven't spoken to her, also that's why i'm going to try and drag the precise rendezvous point out of you asap

ok where shall we meet on Friday? We could always go with Coopers Field again by the stone circle if that's easy for everyone? Then we can play in peace and move on if it's crappy weather or we think of somewhere else interesting to go?

That ok? Any other ideas?

Let's relight this forum

yay!! coopers field sounds good... although did you guys also have to climb over the gate to leave last time?
all part of the fun of course

so are folk going to be there from the afternoon or when?

Till Uberstaff it is then

"...We don't stop playing because we get old, we get old because we stop playing......."

Watched the weather this morning and they said there'll be a cold snap from tomrrow and over the weekend. So I've checked the met-office website and they say cold but no rain so we may need to wrap up warm while we're out and about.

That means no tutu at the weekend skully!

Let's relight this forum

Im looking forward to it already - apparently it will take me 2.5hrs to get there - allowing for bloody traffic and finishing work when the rest of the country does i will be arriving at the place of Rossco around 7-8ish

"...We don't stop playing because we get old, we get old because we stop playing......."

Cool! When we were there on Grand Slam day there were some bongo drummers there, made it all lovely and nice

Let's relight this forum
