That's a shame, fingers crossed you can make it. Between a slow roasted leg of lamb and our new plan for mulled wine incase it's wet it looks like it's going to be a classic!

I'm still hoping to make it (plus 1), I will keep you posted! I was thinking earlier in the week would it be an idea to maybe rig up a tarp or something to sit under if it does end up pissin it down?

We were thinking he same, looks like it might rain later on. If everyone who can throws in a tarp we'll get a makeshift shelter setup!

Looks like I'll have a few messages to do during the day so will meet up later on, so what times are people planning to land up at? and most importantly, what time will dinner be served?  ::)

is anyone actually doing the run? don't worry if you can't make it to the run, i'll bring a collection bucket to camp  ;D  taking orders for mmrt magazines, teddy bears, car stickers, let me know what you want and i'll bring them (or pop into hill trekker in newcastle to buy them)

Thought that leg of lamb might tempt you up  ::)  We are hopefully heading up early (1pm) before the storms arrive to get camp set up and and the leg strung up beside the fire. 

Dinner will be served somewhere between 4pm and 5am depending on how long it takes to cook 2kg of meat in torrential wind and rain  :P

Unfortunately the walk turned out to be pram unsuitable so I'm scuppered for that, however, I'm more than happy to donate cold hard instead. I'd actually quite like an MMRT teddy if they're baby friendly.

That leg of lamb tempted me too.  I'll make up a redcurrant gravy to accompany it, if I can invite myself to a morsel.  Anything else in particular that would make mouths water?  What time meeting at Carrick Little, 1pm?

Plan is to leave Carrick Little at 1pm. I'll text you when we're leaving home, as usual we'll probably be late ;)

Awesome, what time are you blowing down at? The weather seems okay to me. Low winds and a bit of rain from 9pm until 6am-ish.
