June 09 UK Mock Bugout – Official details thread

Postby faerie9 » Sat May 02, 2009 5:09 pm

As stuff has gotten a little chatty in the other thread, here now is the official, organised, info thread. Please can all attendees read and reply. Thanks :)

Date:
13th / 14th June 09

Cost:
£5 per person per night.
Payable in advance to Faerie9 (treasurer)
I did send out PMs a few weeks ago - please could those who haven't paid (most of you!) get in touch. Thanks :)

Location:
Wales:- Glyn Y Mul Farm.

Directions:
Please read the directions– they are excellent and you will likely get lost without them!

Arrival:
I am arriving at 1400 and checking in. Arriving with me will be LilD and the_alias.
All cars please check in with me (mobile number to be supplied by PM) when you get on the A4109 so we can meet you at the railway gate.

I am point-of-contact for Ian, the farm owner – as we were the ones who went to see him, he has requested this out of continuity. He requests that we arrive first, and that we then coordinate all subsequent arrivals amongst ourselves. So:

When you enter Glyn-Mul Farm, proceed directly through the farmyard, with the house on your left (plus cage, possibly with barking Alsatian!). DO NOT STOP IN THE FARMYARD but proceed though, the tame campsite will be on your right, go past, and you will see our vehicle parked by the railway gate. If you have phoned ahead, we will be there to meet you ;)

Attendees:
Cyborg NOT COMING
Faerie9 CONFIRMED
Brash NOT COMING
Aeon CONFIRMED
K9medic CONFIRMED
Jimbawb NOT COMING
Krootox CONFIRMED
The_alias CONFIRMED
BritZedHunter CONFIRMED

Nexy NOT COMING
GregMainer ??
LilD CONFIRMED

Notes:
There is a railway line over which we must cross to access 18 acres of woodland which will not be exclusively used for us, therefore we must be aware of the other people who may be sharing with us. There won't be that many though (I think his total capacity is 30 folks including the tame campsite up top). Info on the train line can be found here. Please read and make yourself familiar. Key point is SHUT THE GATES behind you and stay alert. You won’t get killed as the trains are infrequent and slow, but please use your common sense ;)

There is a tame campsite adjacent to the farm with toilets and showers. Please use water sparingly as there is no mains water and the chap has a complex filtering system going on - therefore wandering into the woods with a shovel and some bogroll, weeing against a tree etc are all encouraged! The chemical loos are preferred use over the normal flush ones (though of course you may use the facilities as normal if you so wish, I am just trying to make folks aware that water is a precious resource on the farm and not just 'on tap' as we are all used to).

Will all attendees please reply, stating:
Approx arrival time
Who you are arriving with


Thanks.

Bring money on the day. Fail to bring it and face my wrath. £10 per head.

That is all! 8)


(For all those already paid, thank you. In light of recent drama I just don't want the stress of administrating it further so I hope you don't feel unfairly treated that some folk are paying on the day. And, officially the MBO is still on! :mrgreen: )

Looking forward to this now.

I will be bringing Mainer and Aeon, arrival time is TBC at the moment.

I am aiming to get there at the same time as Fae so that we can all decide together on the best spot to set up camp etc.

Hey Kroo,

We did some planning last night.

Me, Aeon and Mainer will be arriving in my car at approx 1:30pm.

Due to some complications I will be responsible for picking you up. Neath trainstation is only 4 miles from the camp site. So the easiest thing is for you to show up anytime you want after 2pm then just phone and I will come get you.

I will PM you my number shortly.

I'm guessing you're all out in the woods by now, so have fun, stay safe and take lots of incriminating photos to post here on Sunday!

Weekend was fucking awesome! I am too tired to write anything vaguely coherent so I will wait for someone else to do it.

There should be some hilarious pics :lol:
