Lakes Meet 09?

[HolyCount]

I would love to make it to a Lakes meet in 09, but only if the indians are friendly , as it is one of my most favourite places in the uk.  Just couldn't make it this year for a number of reasons.

careful Lizzie  

Are you referring to local ethnic occupants or indiginous inhabitants ?

Well who ever those inbreds were you all had to deal with last year that I would have to had words with; mother & daughter I believe!!

'native Cumbrians' is probably more PC , although I don't think those two give a fair impression of the species from what I have heard..

Hope to be at this one, although maybe having "heart valve"  i'm not a 16v job  LOL !operation in 2009 so will have to wait see what dates it all falls on! still awaiting dates from ozzie anyway might be 6-12 mths just dont know, but your ok wont need mouth to mouth

I have just returned from a week in the Lake District / Blackpool, re-aquainting myself with my love of the former.

Unless I run out of money (again!!) I would confirm my intention of going to the meet in 2009 to enjoy the Lakes again and, of course,at last meet up with as many members as possible!

Now that you're back, how about going back to Burns Farm!

Thats one place I will never be returning to. Shame, as fantastic views, but run by a mother/daughter who are the result of what happens to the gene pool when too much interbreeding happens.

Does anyone know if the Lakes is still on for this year or is Chopsdad still looking into it?

I've heard he is but can't remember who told me!!!

[Darth Loo-knee]

Pretty sure Chopsdad had somewhere in mind  

[Tony H]

Were you all barred in the end?

I went to the first one which Chopsdad put alot of effort into organizing & was a cracking meet, early days for many of us only marred by the Concentration campsite owner/dictator crazy megalomaniac. Despite us giving her another chance (all's fair in love & world domination) she failed to give us our own area(51) as promised & her screwball daughter made an impressive display of being cut from the same cloth, hence Burns Farm will not be revisited, which is a shame as it's a lovely venue for a meet & the scenery's breathtaking. I did'nt attend this years meet so only relaying posts but was there for the first one & it was top!!!!!!!!

Apart from the overflowing blocked toilets with all sort of unmentionables lying on the gents floor

Cor blimey you lot are needy!  

I have been speaking to a privately owned outward bound centre.  Proper beds, dorms that sleep 1 - 4, private hot showers, plenty of electric, bbq welcome, downstairs bar and meeting room if it's wet like last time and if booked in the school holidays/half term provides exclusive accommodation.

No need to bring all the camping kit, perhaps share lifts, sleep in a bed yet it's set in the most idyllic location 2m from Keswick.

Cars welcome and carpark/hardstanding.

I only have 2 things to sort out - how many cars/people can they take and how much.  It'll be more than a space in a field, but less than a B&B and we're all together - dry and warm and comfortable.

I'll speak with them again this week to firm up costs and dates and see how we get on.  If not the owner also owns a farm less than a mile from Burns Farm and may lend us a field.........
