What is there to do and is there anything we need?

Marking out a shiny route, taping off area's that are a no go, repair / dig out / drain a couple of places to make the place more usable would be needed judging by our last visit.

I will be there from the friday lunchtime

I am coming, but just for the social side. I haven't got plans of bringing the jeep at the moment. If you need help on Thursday I can make that, otherwise I will come on Friday morning. Just let me know

How many 'entry plates' do you think we will need this year?

Does 100 sound optimistic?

Hard to tell, in the last couple of years we have been in the mid 50's, i'm working on around 75 ish as a ball park but its just a guess.

100 would be max I reckon Ivan thank you  :icon_super:

Just back from A&E and I have double fracture in my foot - thought it best to give all you helpers the heads up as I will need to be carried around, ideally in a sedan chair  :greggmo:

I have no doubt birtys will pull through for me :icon_super:

I'm going to come down at the crack of dawn (well my version of it) Saturday and can run around helping with what ever is needed all day as I'm not driving. Was going to come Friday night but have been doing evenings and work away from home so much I fancy a couple of hours on the sofa so my wife remembers I exist.
