Thats right! Poi in the Punt will happen again this year on the earlier date of Saturday 31st May. I have tried to find a date which doesn't clash with anything (much) else to try to get maximum participation and also hopefully a date which will be fixed (i.e. last saturday in May) for the forseeable future.

The day will include a punt trip (funny boat with big stick for those who dont know- see the vid below) on the river cam involving much sillyness and possibly some falling in (yes thats me falling over in the vid redface ).

Theres usually time for a bit of lunch, some spinning in the afternoon followed by a burn and BBQ in the evening. Theres even talk of a tea tasting workshop with a variety of teas all the way from China courtesy of myself and Lazyangel. I'm sure we'll think of a few more as the day approaches too (ideas welcome) biggrin

There will be limited crash space available on the saturday night and if we get a lot of interest we can investigate local campsites to accomodate.

We've had a lot of fun doing PITP the last two years and this year will be no different. Look forward to seeing you there!

I'll post more details as the day approaches. In the mean time I encourage you to post your interest (so we can get an idea of numbers) and take a look at last years vid! weavesmiley

Plus I have arranged for Diablo Ben to bring his inflatable speakers and system! (will need space of two people, or stuck in the front).

oops, sorry Col! tongue

Pete: it'll be cool to meet you if you do come down! smile

If possible, it'd be nice if maybes could work out whether they're coming or not the week before: as I have to drop by the punting company to let them know numbers so I can make sure:
a) the punts are booked
b) we get a discount

wow! lazy angel!.. you know those moments when you realise a hopper you thought was of one gender was actually of the other. this is one of those ubblol sorry dude hug

yeah, will let you know as soon as i can, its more a case of me having no real idea of where im going to live after the first few days in london, and how convenient it is to get to and from cambridge from where i am smile

with crossed fingers though, see you there smile hug

Hey Pete! Given that you'll likely be in London (or did I misunderstand that?), Cambridge isn't too far a trip. By Australian standards it's not even a trip, probably!

But yeah, if you're in London ask one of the other Londoners like Sambo how they're going up, I'm sure they'll let you go on the same train/in the same car hug

oh and just to note, i dont particuarly plan on punting, and i recon my friend can live without...

is there going to be much of a cost and what about precise times and locations? (book train ticket early and get big discount =D ) or will you be saying this nearer the time?

hmmm... well I say the lateness depends on the day realy.. as long as we've got parraffin and people are up for/capable of spinning it'll go on I guess... although it did pour down at the very first one so we ended up getting progressively trashed back at mine...

To be honest I think we'll be playing it by ear: If I break out the espresso at 1am we could be up all night wink

Right, quick update

First of all apologies for my lack of posting, work has gone crazy lately. I have been keeping an eye, and with such consciencious list compilers there hasnt been much need for me angel2

Anyway, this is just to say that I'll post full details before the weekend wink

As Guy said please can the maybes confirm whether or not they can make it as soon as possible as numbers may make a difference to a few bits and pieces (mainly the punt hire).

Look forward to seeing you all soon

hug
