Been in touch with Blacktiger, he's back in Blighty now & he said he'll make it if he can.  :thumbsup

If all is ok , I will turn up and pitch my tent. I cannot commit that far ahead at the moment. I have friends in Somerset, so I can see them on the way if time allows.
Don't count me in ,but if possible I may just turn up.
same here... Except for the friends in Somerset bit.

Gentlemen, a short update.

ACCOMMODATION
I have booked and paid the 50% deposit for the Plume of Feathers in Princeton as follows:

People who asked for the bunk house... Ivor M, Mark R, Pete H

It is £25 for the first night and £21.50 for the second night each.  Hope this is OK with you.

London Phil who wants camping (pay on arrival apparently £8.50 / night)
Spud is camping too

Chris TR and I decided on B and B rooms over a beer last weekend as we both spend a lot of time away or on long journeys and can't be doing with discomfort....so we went with one room each!  Also aware of just how much Pete snores.


ROUTE:
ChrisTR and I are going down there on Friday 3rd May to check it all out and try and determine the route.  Anyone else fancy a recon mission?


OTHER PEOPLE:
Sintiger has one million people visiting in June and July so will only know if he can make it at the last moment.  He's happy to camp.
JayDub will not be able to commit until close to the time either and will camp if he can make it, same goes for Geoff W.
John Stenhouse hasn't decided if he wants to come yet.  I'll be seeing him on Thursday and will apply the thumb screws.
I will speak to Howard (blacktiger) later on today.
Aesdj, Mart and Hockley Boy - are you guys coming?  Hope so!


OUT: Lee337 - family holiday, GavD, Mo, Ted - stuck on the island.

I'm going to play it by ear for now. If I decide to go I'll sort some digs out somewhere, somehow.

I think you have me confused with Ivor  :sleepy1, also keep an eye out for Chester RAT on the Friday as we're in Crediton that weekend  :wheel
