A better bet is Avon Skin so Soft. I dunno why it works (other than there must be something in it), but forestry workers have apparently reported good results with it.

Can any further posts about September be put on this thread to stop confusion. Ta

Agreed - no problem, and new thread already started on the collaboration theme.

On the matter of the bunkhouse being declared "full", the 12 prebooked places Nanook arranged are all taken up, but the bunkhouse isn't full - or wasn't when I phoned a few days ago. And wasn't there a note on other accommodation nearby, apart from the camping option?

I have booked in for three of us to stay the Sunday night aswell.

That gives Friday ride up, Two days for ride outs and three nights on the Heavy stuff drinks.gif

Monday, ride back home.

If anyone else fancies staying the extra night, the reference is under "Ivan Guy".

Apparently he references eveything under peoples names, not dates .... wacko.gif

Luckily I remembered Nanook's name when I rang up.
