Unfortunately I've no time this year to organize it and I think I'd have problems getting the time free to even go. Things are seriously hectic at home.
If someone wants to suggest a date I'd try and make it. Doesn't need to even be the whole Xmas dinner affair, could just have an Xmas camp up in Annalong for the giggles.

I would be up for a wee camp if the date suits. Even if not the full xmas dinner, a few crackers and beers would go down well. It's the only time of year I actually get around to meeting other guys from the forum here.

Ditto! Xmas Camp is about the only time I see anyone on the site.

Annalong is the obvious spot as said (parking, travel distance if bringing kids etc)

Assuming a weekend will suit most people (sorry shiftworkers I feel your pain too) the following would be the dates that it could be done.

Someone wade in and pick one. A date and a place is all we really need.

Friday 30th November
Saturday 1st December

Friday 7th December
Saturday 8th December

Friday 14th December
Saturday 15th December

Friday 21st December
Saturday 22nd December

Guys, I had loved to been able to make this camp, but I don’t think any date in December will suit me to be honest, with my wife working and we’re trying to move house that month too.
It would have been great to have had a catch up with you all, but I hope you have a good night, eat plenty and enjoy the beers!

God I need to get the cobwebs dusted off my tent! 😔

15th would suit me.  Hopefully won’t have to turn up at 12 at night again!

I'm pretty tight for December this year unfortunately but whatever date is picked I'll at least try and make an appearance. It's been a shit year for me getting out, fingers crossed next year is a bit better!

Its been a strange year for me too, and I've hardly walked the length of myself, never mind plundering through the mountains  :(

The 15th should work for me, for a bit of a Christmas get together.  Hopefully see you all there!

Aw, this is sad as it looks like camp won't be happening this year. I've been interested but never made it up to now.  I checked in tonight as camp would probably have taken place around now or at least cooking / supply list would be organised. I know 15th has been mentioned but nobody has taken lead re logistics so I suspect it won't happen. Sorry, I've never met any of you socially but camp has always seemed to be a good thing.  :(

It should still be a great camp, and very festive, so if your free you should try and get along.  I'm pretty sure there will still be some tasty food and drink being passed around :)

We just need to be careful everybody attending doesn't bring mince pies  :D
