Sounds like a plan.

So you mean the 18th? Should be ok.

Can you email whatever details you've got so far to me and YowieLover when you get a sec and we can start locking it down.

Cheers,
FG

Okay, I'll PM all the info to those who want it, I'll just put it on a web page - a lot easier that way. Expect a link within the next 24 hours.

Sweet. I was going to suggest something like that, except I wouldn't know how to do it myself...

Prime area with history :)

Only downside atm its really dry up their (To the point most of the fungus and moss have died) but according to the weather forecast we should have a few days worth of showers before hand, to soften the ground up a bit.

We should also find out whos bringing up what:

Ill be taking up my radio and first aid kit. I will also bring 2 sets of spare camo I have, just in case someone needs it and is my size. Also its possible I *might* have a spare radio or 2, no promises though.


I would recommend everyone bring at least 3l of water and something up munch on

I'll have a tent, sleeping bag, (if i can find some) some camo gear, camera (doubles as a video recorder), torch, digital sound recorder.

If I can't find camo gear, mikka - hook us up haha.

edit: I just realised something. I can hook up my webcam (its a decent one with 5 LED lights on it + inbuilt mic) to my laptop. Simply attach webcam to backpack with laptop recording everything the webcam sees. Just for when we're going walkies. Day or night!

Okay guys, from now on, any info that needs to be shared, my email address is deadpool.ninja [at] hotmail.com - we can talk about it on msn/via emails instead. just incase, y'know - other people with different ideas to ours come across this thread.

This is just more for safety than anything else. Not for us, for.. well, yeah, you know what's out there. :wink:

Good question Mikka - I'm still keen, and I know Anonimust is as well. Drop me an email to forestguyozATgmail.com when you get a chance and we can talk further.

In fact, that goes for anyone who's still keen - email me and I'll put together a group email of who's interested so we can just hit 'reply all'.
