"yorkshire caves" a weekend trip 11th ~13th APRIL 2014

[Andrew Farrow]

as my head has been up my arse this week - its only just sunk in that the leck fell close season starts Tuesday 1st APRIL  2014 .

so we can do nothing on leck fell - but apart from smurfs disappointment that we cannot do boxhead trip for him - it makes no issue - we have hundreds of other choices for sunday

Can you make north henblas on the 10th? Thurs before the weekend trip? I'm planning on having a practise on the rebelays[/quote]

Hopefully I should be able to make this, and I have been given the ok for the weekend so can I book a place.

change of plan for me, i can only make the sunday       soz

[Iestyn Rhys Pritchard]

Has anyone got a seat going spare in their car that they'd swap for a few beers?
save me driving the whole way on my tod

[Tim Watts]

I expect so - are there any plans regarding transport - I can take the landy with trailer for nine people with gear if required? But that being the case i'd want to try to fill it with as many as possible to make it worth sharing the diesel. Failing that i'll jump in with someone too.

if i make the assumption that Joel and Lauren and Andy intend making travel arrangements from their own directions and Captain Mike is only coming for one day i could suggest offering a lift from this area to....

1 - tim
2 - Tom
3 - iestyn
4 - Tony
5 - Boydy
6 - Vikki

If Joel fancied getting to say stretton roundabout on the M56 (Leave car in Stretton Fox Pub carpark) I could pick you up on route too. Lauren - don;t even know where she lives but happy to pick up on route too if required.

potentially would make:

7) Joel
8 ) Lauren
9) Purdie

which would fill the landy quite nicely.

If we go in the Landy what time would you be thinking of leaving?

[Tim Watts]

dunno - i'm free all day. Anyone of the intended passangers got any time requirements? i.e. what time are you back from work?

[Iestyn Rhys Pritchard]

I've got the day off too, so not bothered.

When are we planning on coming back? I notice the thread says 13th, which is monday. I've got a job interview at 1330 on monday

[Andrew Farrow]

Expect a 2.5 hr drive from Tim's house - under ideal conditions - a UCET rabble - will probably take 3

[Tim Watts]

Naa - your diary must be out of calibration. We'll be coming back Sunday eve - which is the 13th. Iestyn once we determine any people with time constraints we'll firm up times for friday. But assuming people want to all go in the landy together then you can leave your car at my place for the weekend.

[Andrew Farrow]

@ llestyn - the 13th is a sunday - at least it is in England - YMMV in wolly back land

[Iestyn Rhys Pritchard]

Oh yeah! lol. my mistake!

sound good to me

[Tim Watts]

first post updated with list of names for accom etc - Mike L no only coming for the Sunday, 'Purdie' from DCC added , taking his bed

[Tim Watts]

113 miles from My house to the farm. 2 hours.

[Tim Watts]

just had it sprung that Joel, Tom, Lauren and Purdie are only coming for friday night, activities on Saturday with us and then leaving to go to an event in derbyshire on Saturday night, and caving derbyshire sunday.

I've updated the initial post to reflect the latest state of play to the best of my knowledge.

Shame we've lost Tom on Sunday coz he was a key player in terms of guide.
