I have a preference for physical activities if possible so happy to stack logs, haul gas, etc.
Same here.
Hi Guy,
Iām driving from London Friday, taking Martin + Naomi, and Paul (Hobden). The carās a 4-seater. Not able to access the spreadsheet unfortunately (I-Phone issues), although Martin may already have updated it,
Will
Everyone will be doing some cleaning, beyond that weāll try and accommodate peopleās preferences!
Iād like to join as well, as long as there is a lift available! I donāt seem to be able to access the spreadsheet at the moment, would someone be able to add my details to the list?
Iāll be free from 5pm on Friday and am based in kings cross, although Iāll happily make my way to wherever people are leaving from.
Thanks,
Tom
Will add you in Tom, lifts will be co-ordinated next week, see you there, cheers
Sorry @chizharward, Tim and I wonāt be able to join you at this working meet. Timās had his work trip to Norway confirmed for this week. Hope to catch up with you another time!
Manchi
No problem Manchi, thanks both for all your help on past meets, hope to catch up with you soon
Hi all,
thanks to everyone who has said they are coming, looking to be another good meet. We should get a lot done and have a good social, and hopefully get out on the hill on Sunday.
Lift situation is looking good, @guyarnold will sort the remaining lifts out, can everyone check the spreadsheet (@mortim91 are you omnivore/veggie, and are you club member?).
itās looking a bit moist over the weekend, so old waterproofs and change of clothes. We have a number of jobs to do outside, notably finishing the roof, and these will be happening. There will also be gas bottles to take down/swap/take up. Expect to get wet for some of one day, but also to dry off in front of the burner.
Given the weather things will take longer than usual, and it is likely that we will NOT get everything finished on the Saturday. We will finish up as early as we can on the Sunday.
Khalid, you were going to bring your plumbing tools for the tap?
Space will be tight in the Cottage as we will be giving it a deep clean, so please bring minimal climbing gear and leave it in vehicles or at the Barn (once the hall has been cleaned) rather than bringing up to Cottage.
Iāll be up from Friday lunchtime unloading slates in the rain (!), and work permitting up Monday as well if anyone is staying on,
Looking forward to it!
For those that havenāt been on a working meet before, the format is:
-
most people will turn up late on Friday night at the Cottage, hopefully we can sort out who would like to do what on the meet.
-
If you have any medical conditions etc please tell me so we can make sure youāre ok with what we ask you to do
-
Saturday morning is communal breakfast cooked by Guy, Martin and Naomi, we will provide a couple of sausage/egg baps, plus milk, tea and coffee. If you want anything else bring it, but communal cooking gets priority!
-
we start with a short briefing at 9am, for insurance purposes we need to go through risk assessments. If in doubt about anything during the day ask me! Iāll delegate out a ganger for each hut to coordinate jobs through the day
-
we kick off with everyone helping with a deep clean of both buildings.
-
two people to take laundry to Plas y Brenin to wash and dry (takes most of day)
-
one person to get gas refills
-
there will be a load of wood to stack in the store, hopefully the delivery can get up the trackā¦
-
lunch about 1pm, bring your own, hopefully to be eaten in the sunshineā¦
-
finish about 5pm, hopefully the Barn will be clean and all jobs done
-
hot tea and pudding cooked by our chefs
-
Sunday is basically a repeat, although we may get a lie-in. Communal breakfast and then finish off any remaining jobs
-
Clean our way out of the Cottage and take rubbish away.
-
Once we have all finished we can hopefully get out on the hill
Please bring minimal kit, youāll need normal Cottage kit: sleeping bag, torch, wash kit, plus old clothes. Looking like a waterproofs kind of weekend⦠if bringing climbing kit please leave in vehicles, or at Barn (once the hall is clean) rather than Cottage.
Any questions, just ask or PM me. Iāll be up from Friday lunchtime, number is 07881486837
