Re: Red Squirrel 24th August - Beef Stew
I will have to sit this one out again. My Arab pal from my college days is now on holiday with us together with his wife & youngest daughter. I was hoping to get away alone with him for a weekend to live it up a bit like in the old days but the stroke he had a few years back is more sever than I thought. He needs a level surface to walk on and a wheelchair would not be much use at Red Squirrel.
I will also need a pitch where my new 2WD motorhome will not get bogged down again that is not a million miles away from where you lot are pitched.
Bummer!
Tony

Sounds good, even though I wouldn't be able to have any, however, it looks like we won't manage this meet as my daughter is moving house around about then
Hope you all enjoy it though.

Hi Matt
If there are no other takers we can bring the seasonings ( garlic, bay leaves, salt etc) as well as the vino.
Looking forward to having a taste.

Is there any reason why there's no ehu points at the red site? Just a member had mentioned this,curious
Re: Red Squirrel 24th August - Beef Stew
I think it is because they like to keep things fairly simple. Kind of wild camping with toilets and showers. Plus a lot of the people who use it are one nighters, climbers/hillwalkers/student clubs etc. But we are usually the rowdy ones!
