Ok, so the deal is, weekend meet, along the Wales/England border.
Dates: 29th Sept-1st October
Location: Court Farm Campsite , Llanthony, nr. Abergavenny for a minimal fee of £2 per person per night. 4 quid!! Two pubs within walking distance and a really old priory... Court farm have said they will cordon off half the campsite for camping and spinning, but no bonfires sorry!
All other information can be found on the wiki including a list of attendees definately and maybe, please add your name as soon as possible if you're coming because i need to let the campsite know!
Wiki is at borderpatrol.wikispaces.com. And contains also a space for arranging lifts. The nearest train station is Abergavenny and it's 15mins drive, so if you come by train at all, please put it on there, you WILL need a lift!
if anyone is coming by train, can you please please please let me know beforehand what time roughly you will arrive in abergavenny, because i am less than convinced that my phone will work!
Hope to see lots of you there!

so what time is everyone actually planning on getting there on the 29th?... and is it strictly whos on the list?.. it is a normal campsite yeh?..so anyone could go ?
yeah mike, the list was just so i could give campsite woman an idea of numbers, it's not limited to the list, but it also helps plan lifts etc and if anyone needs picking up for the train station (!!!!please tell me before hand if this is the case because there might not be enough phone signal for me to receive calls!!!!)
as for time of arrival... anytime you want really, the campsite is booked friday night and saturday, the idea was that people can go to work or whatever first and not take too much time off, but if you want to bumble along earlier, there should be no problem.
Pitman> cheers dude. We'll try and work out where is easiest to pick me up from, if i come straight from work, i can wait north cardiff somewhere, which might be quicker. How many people in the car? I wanna try and get rossco up too, but don't know if he knows about it yet...

hiking?
wow! i'm well impressed. but liftwise, post it on the wiki also, in case it gets lost in the thread 
Anyone wanna do a bit of hiking actually? there's a nice walk up to the top of offa's dyke, along a bit and back down, takes about 3 hours... so if the weather's nice we can go and spin on the actual border on top of a hill! i'll bring a map anyway...

ok... i don't know if anyone will be there about 4ish yet, but in case i'm wrong and someone will be, please pick mike and his mates up from the station
Mike, if the afore-mentioned hiking plan of yours is a no-go, and no-one is yet around, there is a pub not far from train station, go outwards left and then it's on the right, at the very least you can get a drink or something while waiting, i doubt i will get there before 4 so should still have phone signal then. Phone if you need rescuing, and i will send calvary as soon as 'tis possible.
for all> in case there are many more people arriving on the train earlyish, there are not very many ways of getting to Llanthony, there is a taxi option but it's about £15, or the Abergavenny-Hereford bus, but the closest that will get you is Llanvihangel, see map:

that's why i'd like some forewarning. Thanks for obliging Mike, I will try and sort you out to get picked up at 4ish, or as near as possible to then!
thankyou bug for the bus research

call me giz, everyone else does 
yeh non i found the map on the campsite page after i posted lol.. take no notice of me im slow 1,643 posts

that's weird, why did i start calling you mike then? think either sagetree or pitman must've started that
MikefG - we could just call you hitman, that would be kind of cool, but then we'd get confused probably with pitman... could be a disaster all round.
Giz> look at the multimap one also, it's more like a proper map map...
