Come on guys and gals. Stop dropping out. No more drop outs.

lol, thats the way the cookie crumbles, people always drop out closer to the time.

but its winter and alot of bugs going round.

p.s should I bring a few bags of frozen carrots or tin carrots, if tins how many would I need?

You don't fancy having a stab at fresh carrots, possibly honey roasted or something!  Last year it was a proper Christmas Dinner with Honey Roasted Parsnips and Carrots, Roast Potatoes, Real Mash, Roast Ham and all the proper trimmings, like you would get at home on Christmas Day.


Don't have to cook from scratch on the hill.  Can be pre-roasted at home and warmed in tin foil over the log fire.

Hmmm, hey Dowser, i wonder could we get you a camoflaged apron to match the rest of your outfit  ;D

Already ordered lol...  Lets hope it arrives on time from Ebay  ;D ;D

Good Stuff... I've got a 16lb Turkey, 3lb Home-made Stuffing and 1lb of Streaky Bacon in my fridge just waiting to be roasted up for this event.

Your honey roast carrots will be the perfect accompaniment and I'll make sure you get an extra slice of turkey too  ;)

This was last years Christmas Camp Turkey... Not a single Bernard Matthews Turkey Twizzler in sight  ;D

Well Guys and Girls, the count down is on...

Weather seems to be quite rough until Friday night but Saturday and Sunday Morning is looking good.

My Turkey is ready to go, the Honey Roast Carrots are on special order and Jsurginor has swooped in and saved the day by volunteering for the Mash  ;D

If everbody chips in, and makes their contribution that little bit special, this will be a Crimbo Feast to remember.

Just need to get my ipod filled to bursting point with Festive music and we're all set.

Merry Christmas Everyone and looking forward to seeing you all there  :D

Can't beleive I'm gonna say this, but the Bigga Mushy Peas, in the tin, are probably just as good as any lol... If he doen't want the weight of a few tins he could put them in sandwich bags.

If he fancies doing the real McCoy he would need to buy a couple of boxes of dried peas the day before and soak them overnight with bicarbonate of soda (Comes in the box).  Once soaked they cook in about 5 mins so they would be easily done on the hill.

Your Bro can decide what he wants to do.

We have to give the option... I have to admit, I felt a bit guilty suggesting Honey Roast carrots to Cutelaguna  :-[

We can't all be Jamie Oliver, Thank God  ;)
