Hi all,

For those of you who've booked, you should have the whats on / meal tickets and directions through the post by the weekend.

Events for the weekend are coming on well, The ECO oven will have free jacket spuds for all on Fri night, bring your own food for the BBQ we'll set-up, and bring your own drinks.

Sat through the day there's loads of complimentary therapies, including:
Reflexology
Hopi Ear Candling
Reiki
Massage
Tarot readings
Angel Card reading

The assault course is open, and so is the bar!

Sat eve there's some spooky films in the barn and a ghost walk in the woods for the kids, live music, and Jaynes awesome carvery!

I've still got space to squeeze a few more in if you're thinking of going, send an email to me at:

Just a reminder lads that fireworks are great....for us...but animals usually hate them and are very frightened of the noises etc. If its decided to have them I will have to stay home as Chip is such a wuss, he sits and shivers/hides etc. I really don't mean to spoil things for you all....I'm just telling it like it is for most of us dog/animal owners........sadly !!

Fireworks -

I've spoken to Jayne about this, and there are a few issues.

The main worry is the horses being spooked, and lots of hay about to catch fire. Also the land is used for Pheasant shooting, so there might be an upset gamekeeper to contend with.

I think I would rather we didnt have them at the weekend, there's plenty to keep you all occupied.

Hope this wont spoil anyones weekend,

I think that's more than sensible =D> My concern was for the horses, plus we don't want to spoil the chances of future meets there 8) They have really made us welcome and we need to be fair to them :D

Good choice with regards fireworks,
get lots of glow sticks for kids to spin and juggle instead.
Always be ready for a Top Up!

Hi all,

I've posted out all the tickets for the meet, so you should have them by the weekend. I wont be on-line till Monday, drop me a PM if nothings arrived by then, and I'll sort it out.

There's some walls gone up in the party shed, to keep the heat in, Jayne was going to buy a hot-air blower just to keep you lucky lot warm, but we decided that we'd give hugs out to anyone feeling the cold. :lol:

All I need to organise now is some good weather, and were sorted!

SD

Before you say it, Mr Monkey, I'm not hugging you unless you have a shave!
