[Kat]

Will Kat be joining us? I seem to remember someone mentioning something about her owing us a desert or suchlike. Could have totally misheard of course 

Haha!  Yes I shall indeed be joining!  I'm planning the desserts as we speak   

[Kirth]

Kat,  How are you going to get a 20 potion Banoffee up into the woods with Whipped cream too?

Hi
would like to join in this camping weekend, would be a first timer, haven't a tent but know where I might be able to borrow would, would be keen to bring my son who's 8,  are there any other kids around this age going,  I do a fair bit of walking and cycling myself but my son doesn't do that much but keen to get him into the great outdoors

I'm going the tent route though I'll probably have the bivvy bag with me too!

Yeah I'm bivying. I'll prob just end up lying by the fire anyway!

[Dowser]

Tent for me... will have a kid with me (That's my excuse anyway)

[Blackthorn]

I think fate is on my side for this one.  I had a prior engagement that has just fallen through, so count me in  

I'm considering bringing a couple of whole rabbits to try the whole Bear Grylls bushcraft thing...

...Any objections please let me know, and I'll leave the rabbits in the field.  I know this is gonna be a family camp and I wouldn't want to upset anyone.

What, youre going to eat them raw in your hotel room? Im sure noone would mind if you stayed and cooked them over the fire!!

There will be at least 3 kids between 8 - 11. Just remember that although it isn't far from the car park it is quite steep with some off-path parts.

Hopefully I'll be hammocking!

Will be my first time bivvying, so looking forward to trying it out.  Kat will most likely be taking the Tempest 200 though, so at least I can bail in there if it all goes pear shaped

So are we going to share some tarps, or will we just cover half of Donard Wood in them?   I should have a nice new DD 3x3 tarp by the end of the week so fancy seeing one in action.

[chris]

You dont need tarps in a forest, if it rains just roll over!

There's a thread for food discussions for this weekend here.
