All those wanting to come along, Dec' 6th/7th is this years date and all are welcome.

There might possibly be a northern and Scottish chapter outing too, there usually is ... I also think it's about time them darn sarf sorted themselves out

Aye, nights soon be drawing in....

Do they get winter down there?

In the calender now which means I'll def be attending the Welsh one again.

I do believe I've found a rather special overnight venue ... don't ask, 'cos I'm not saying

work stops play yet again for me unfortunately.

It's the equivalent of a Scottish summer bivi.

I'm game for the Scottish one, wherever it may be. However if nobody has one planned, might I suggest the Pentlands given their proximity to Edinburgh (and my house)?

Last two winters have been at bothies in the borders. The one we used last year had a fire place and made for a very cosy night. The talk is of another bothy but no decision made as to which one.

I'm game for the welsh one

Welsh one in the diary

Welsh one for me

Hopefully the spot I've lined up should be a belter ... BTW has anyone seen the film 'Sawney - Flesh of Man'?

A cave?

A cave?

Sadly no, not a cave (all the caves I find tend to be knee deep in water) but it is the kind of place you could imagine a film like that been set ... happy days
