Just thought I'd add a picture of marquee to see if this is ok with everyone

If it's not just say...........I won't be offended

The trimmings may even still be on in part lol

The marquee we have bought together( not harrys the other one) is not as fancy as Kath & Ians, but if it p*****g down who the bloody hell cares as long as its dry.

Neil and I will contribute too, DBO. You have a pm. Seems a great idea as the meets just would not be the same without a gathering point, with or without rain, lol.

Just an update so far,,I have received though the post up to today wed 7th nov cheques to the value of £220.00

There may be more due, there are about 6 bongoers who said will send a cheque through post. (IF YOU HAVE NOT ,GET A MOVE ON)

And there are about 7 bongoers who said they will pay at buxton.

SO IF EVERYONE PAYS WE WILL HAVE A GRAND TOTAL OF £350.00:shock:

I have purchased the marquee from costco ,two lights and ratchet tie downs (just in case its windy) total £171.00

Harrys marquee will cost £160.00. so grand total of £331.00

Mike (dreamwarrioruk) is going to get the electrics sorted (hook up) so the rest of the money will be to pay for his leccy work.

I hope this meets with all your approval.

There are a few other bongoers who may yet donate ,we will see.

what electrics do you want dave, ie two leads at 25m/30m with male and female plugs and sockets and a 3 way splitter or do you want 1 25m with a 3 way splitter with some smaller 10m leads making up with ends on.
