2010-03-13/14 - Carry on Camping

Schweet, thank you.

I vote that we should have a house meeting about it!
Sparky sounds like a pyromaniac, not sure we can have him/her/it in the house.

Also, he might be one of those gays.

I'm going to have to bow out so if anyone wants to buy my place go for it.

I think mobidog said to Scott that him and his girlfriend are most probably out as well, so looks like pitch 16 is free too.

We just did, you were still at work.

Ha.

I'm entirely sensible and completely boring, promise.

Don't worry, I'm just trolling my house mates as I'm stuck at work.

A second meeting point at the junction of Tooting High Street and Mitcham Road (ie opposite Tooting Broadway tube) would be great for us, cheers. 9.30am?

OK people, if anyone wants it, pitch 16 is now up for grabs, have a snowboarding trip to Austria to go on from tuesday which is just too good a deal to pass up on. If anyone wants the space just pm either myself or Scott and we'll swap the £15 fee. Thats for the whole 2 man pitch - my girlfriend is also not going by the way, you don't get the pitch and her for £15!

How about £20 then? And some crisps?

Haven't ridden more than 30miles in one stint yet this year, fair few of those mind...
I'm gonna die with luggage.
Can't wait!

I could bring the bus...

As expected, study stuff is all due at the same time, and I have 7,000 words to write within a couple of weeks as well as 2 assignments to hand in. So I'm out and taking ladystardust with me.

All paid up though, so whoever wants a free slot can have it :)

I have some lovely sleeping bags for the summer now though.

Tidying the list.

Shame we won't be seeing some of you folks.

Tricity and Scott I take it's still ok I pay for the pitch when I , er, pitch-up.

Really looking forward to this now. Got a fab lightwieght tent now, too. Except, Habbi be warned, i's a one-manner which can take two, if they align head to toe at fairly close proximity*.

So I'm sorry Habbi this potentially pushes you into the open under the naked night sky. Did yu have your own tent, else knock on the door of one of the 'family tents, or play the risk card on a close encounter? I'm no more than normally fidgety, malodorous and rattle-breathed. To be fair, I've spent longer periods sleeping next to strangers on coaches and trains than this particular night is likely to entail.

*excepting folks of Max and Fruitbat proportions, obviously.

We did the recce ride of the return leg today and Blackberry Wood looks beautiful in the sunshine. Obviously it may be completely wrong this far in advance, but Metcheck reckons temperatures will be a bit warmer by the weekend and also predicts a tailwind on the way down, which would be nice.

Also, Scott says if anyone wants any fanny bacon we will be returning via Fanny's Farm Shop.

Wow, didn't realise it was so soon.

Looking forward to it. How many others are doing this ride on a brakeless track bike? Will be my first long ride on the Cannondale as well!

In other news, HOPEFULLY, this will be the initial outing of the LFGSS BBQ Bike, so please feel free to bring anything that can be BBQ'd as this service will be available for all to use!

...fanny bacon ....

Also what's that dark 'zone' on Fanny's pinny? Fanny's Farm Shop.

Not sure I'm tempted.

I'll be traveling from Norwich the night before, staying at Grobags Towers and riding to Brighton in the glorious sunshine (here's hoping). Hopefully will buy some meat on the way, rather than taking it with me.

Sounds cool though. BBQs and bikes. Two of my favourite things beginning with B.

Tent 13 also gone, Dids is bouldering in fontainbleu the week after and on a stag do the next weekend. In a fit of spousal (sic?) cowardice I have to bail out in order to reduce the earache from the perfumed ayatollah
Soz.
Have fun!
