Myself
Flatfishy
Ian
Pedalhead
Stevemorg
Yetiman
SBF
Nick
Fantastic
Have I missed anyone ?

Is Pete not coming?
Everybody email and pester him, see if we can bully him into coming.
Or is he off to see Santa again.

What are people kipping in? Space is tight with my mini-peak and my Rab winter bag (I really wish the Cotic would take adecent size frame bag) - is everyone else doing tarp and bivi (with optional annexe) or are people taking their pyratents etc?

You must've put a lot of weight on if you need a tent that size!
