Northern summer drinks meet-up 23rd June 2018

[kalidarkone]

I'm gonna drive so might be worth coordinating a pick up/ lift nearer the time. I can take 4 but 3 would-be less sweaty.

 

[kalidarkone]

Have submitted an A/L request. Now looking at campsites.

 

[Glitter]

I'm actually going to Manchester... Twice! Once in April and once in May... So I'm not sure how feasible June will be.

Let me know when you do.

 

[Dovydaitis]

I’ve had a gander and found a campsite, this is looking very promising

 

[wiskey]

Let me know when you do.

you'll laugh at me but I've just had a thought process of

'oh my mate lives in Hexham, I'm going to the North, maybe I'll stop in with her for a cuppa'
*googles Hexham to Manchester map*
'holy fuck it's three hours drive!!! Manchester is hardly the north at all '

 

[neonwilderness]

Hexham is proper north tbf

 

[Sprocket.]

Manchester and Sheffield are north .... Midlands!

[Shirl]

Got it now chuck. I hope you and Narnia will be there

Manchester and Sheffield are north .... Midlands!

That's fightin' talk.

The fucking midlands - how dare you.

I told one of the lads from Sheffield that it wasn’t in Yorkshire more north Derbyshire!
He didn’t laugh either

[Callie]

Are you looking at the campsite at Cragg Vale?

 

[Kaka Tim]

might be up for this- camping in the muesli belt is it?

Camping in a tent made of patchouli-scented afghan coats, with a fire burning old copies of the Guardian I expect.

And well-thumbed, vintage copies of Kindred Spirit!

[Kaka Tim]

Is Soujourner coming? (dont know how to tag people) - don't think ive met anyone else.

I don't think Hebden is cosmopolitan or sophisticated enough to have a Holiday Inn. They've only got electricity last year.

sojourner (type the @ symbol followed by the username. The system will show a list of matching names after the first few letters).

I found this one:

Pennine Way Camping Accommodation | Hebden Bridge Camping Site | Tent Pitches and Campervan Hookup Pitches | Camping and Campervan Site, Colden, Hebden Bridge | Pennine Way Camping Site

 

[kalidarkone]

People not camping, where will you stay?

 

[Shirl]

I found this one:

Pennine Way Camping Accommodation | Hebden Bridge Camping Site | Tent Pitches and Campervan Hookup Pitches | Camping and Campervan Site, Colden, Hebden Bridge | Pennine Way Camping Site

That's great
I've stayed there once, it's attached to s pub and a down hill walk into town

 

[Orang Utan]

count me in, if not for camping

 

[sojourner]

As long as I don't have any gigs, I'm coming.

I quite fancy camping too - fucking hate trying to negotiate the train home from Heb when I'm pissed. It involves Manchester and that's hellish at any time of the day or night.

 

[kalidarkone]

Ok got a little flutter of excitement, which means I'm now emotionally invested in this excursion

Aye we will, will probably have Finn Larden in tow now he's got mates at the skate park in HB. Quite tempted to partake in this camping malarkey
