Title: Lakes meet - a reminder
Post by: TheBoy on 20 May 2010, 18:56:33
Just a reminder that The Lakes meet is not that far away now (see Meetings section).

I'm looking forward to this one :D.

I will be picking Mrs TheBoy up from work at noon, so hope to be at the site around 3ish, depending on traffic.

I suspect there is still places available if people want to come and join in the fun and frollicks - speak to Darth Loo-knee if you are interested :y


I suspect the usual schedule of a 'pub style' quiz on Saturday night will happen, whilst supping a few beers, and huddled around a big BBQ (bob.dent - are you going?)



I'm wishing my life away, but can't wait :D

Ooo a bit too keen for me, can't even dream of 3ish.  I'm hoping I can get away for 4pm - it'd be nice to setup in the light ...
Save me a nice place or two, I'll be along a bit later.

Suppose I ought to try out the new tent (purchased on the way home from Newent ::)) beforehand - just in case something's missing.

Last time I bought a tent there was a small snag. It didn't have a flysheet. >:(

hmmm, better to try this weekend, than trying to work out late on a Friday night, when all around you are too 'merry' to even care about helping you get it set up ::) ;D

I certainly want to Jaime but I've got to see how my finances pan out over next couple of weeks as I've had a lot of expenditure just lately (around £1000 on the Omega over the last couple of months!!). If I can get Greg or a mate to come with me and share fuel costs it may be feasable. :y

I seem to remember you saying you wouldn't drive it 'cos you were the one that's jinxed.......must have rubbed off on Chris. Mind you, I thought I had a hole in the fuel tank after he got back from the "test drive" ::) ;D

Joking aside, EP has said he has tent and can pick you up from train.  I'm sure we can arrange another BBQ somewhere no probs, so just take a bag up with clothes etc.  Buy beer up there ;)
