The Thing

It's been dry so Rother Valley must be a viable option. Whichever it is I'll be there! Mind you the BBC weather man won't say what's happening after tropical Thursday  :! .

I've just spoken with Jackie at Rother Valley who says that the field is in a decent state and she says as long as we don't have any torrential rain between now and Friday everything should be fine.

The main gate will be closed, but just open the smaller side gate, go inside and unlock from the inside.

There are some works going on over the weekend around the site but they shouldn't affect us at all.

I've also been in contact with Jackie and forwarded all the proposed dates for the year.

And again I shall be on the missing list :cry:

I've noticed that more people seem to be going when I am not - Is it something I've said  :oops:

Thanks, she did say she was concerned no-one had contacted her this year.

I'm hoping to get there shortly before 8pm tomorrow.  Unfortunately I can't make the OAS meeting tonight.

See you down there!

Rocket Pooch

I won't be there, we are somewhere else!

Mike

A gang of us tonight have decided that on Saturday for lunch we are going to pop along to one of the local pubs for a beer and a bite to eat. If anyone wants to pop down for the day and join us then you're welcome. We will pop off some time between 1pm and 2pm.
