No worries, Pete.

I think we are all sorted with tents at the Cronk.

Only Trebor who is B&B in Ramsey and I have his mobile number to keep in touch.

Weather looks as if it should be better than Last time, remember the rain at that race in the Church corner ! hide.gif

Dont forget a wooly hat. I was told that trick by a mountineer, wear wooly hat when you sleep in a tent and you will have a good nights sleep and warm as toast.

When is everyone getting there.

I am 9.30 Thursday night.

Realy looking forward to it, get away and enjoy myself.

sick about the fookin wedding already !

Cheers, Ivan

Dave,

check in closes 6.15, so I will be getting there 5.45-06.00.

The whole Idea was to go after work. But I'm off this week ............... cuckoo.gif

I could have got the 1.00 ferry and had a relaxing afternoon putting the tent up.

Now its wonky tents in the dark !

Is it too late to change ?

I think quite alot of us are on the same ferry.

Me and BigDave are hoping to get there for about 6ish.

Think that goes for Tony and Catsbum too.
