Plenty of showers, I think it rains quite alot around Sharlston Common.
Especially in the rhubarb growing season.

I don't think so Mr Happy. Toilets will be open until late and then early in the morning and there are bushes all round :)

I'll be floating the date [Friday the 13th - Arrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh!] past the social committee this evening to see if they'll let me come.

Will there be an al fresco minimalist open plan loo in the middle of the campsite like the one when I came your do before?

I'm just getting round to booking flights - can you confirm this is on for the weekend 13th May - I need to get dates confirmed before dealing with travel.

Another suggestion was a batch of chili, veg curry and rice but will no more when I've spoken to Caroline (landlady) tonight. Seem to be a good few coming and hopefully more when the news spreads. It is not an exclusive Mudcat weekend so please feel free to invite folky friends just keep me informed for numbers etc.

I'll let you know nearer the time, just in case I am in the middle of renovations. (This all depends on me being able to afford the work this year, builders being available, and pre-work conditions being met).

Should be able to drive to and fro from Eggborough, if I'm able to kip down at Nen's.

But worth it, Hils! Going to have a chat to landlady on Friday to give her an idea of sort of numbers she can expect. I've had about 30 definites and a few maybes. May give some thought to idea of pie and peas on the Saturday night what do folk think?

Pub has a reasonable sized field which should be plenty big enough. £2 per night tent £4 caravan all occupants included. Very easy to walk from Hemsworth.

Nice Choice.
Living in Hemsworth, I could walk there in around 45 minutes!!!
It may be possible to camp on the "common land", not to far away if the council allow it.
Hope to be there.

The pub is the White Horse Old Sharlston WF4 1EP and date is 13th May. Nearest B&B is the Redbeck Motel according to my searches. We are hoping that the pub will do breakfast if there is enough interest. Also wondered whether folk might be interested in a pie and pea supper or something on the Saturday night or of course the pub does very good pub food.

Mally there is an EFDSS date listing for Doncaster May 20th weekend not March, not sure about Ukrainian club either

I am told that Doncaster will be near the Racecourse and that there will be camping/camper space with a club house for sessions etc 2011

Need Sue Knowles to enlighten here! As i think there is a bit more to follow

Have to check with our dog sitter tomorrow but our diary is clear and we're really looking forward to it. Really missed it the last couple of years.

I'm HOPING to be out of the wheelchair by then (it will have been a whole year!) but if not, what's the deal with wheelchir access please?

If you need help, let us know.

There's an outside possibility that we might be able to do a day trip up from Newark on the Saturday, if it fits in with the rest of the stuff that Kendall wants to do when we come over in May.
