Are they PMR (multi-channel thingies)? If so, bring 'em - they're better than nowt. I'll not bother with the CB, but I have PMR I can bring. Also on the 2m amateur band.

Err, No & no.

There is a rumour that there are lavies somewhere in / near the barn, but I've never found any. Never having been accompanied y someone of the female sex, I don't really know.

As for food, it's bring a packed lunch, or cook on site. No burger vans!

Cheers

As I said, I've been told there *are* toilets, I've just never found them! Side steps wont stop you driving round & having fun. The site is huge, and we'll only be setting up a couple of short sections if folk want it - the rest of the site is open play!

With road tyres, cars *will* get stuck - but hey, that's part of the fun. To be honest, I reckon everyone will get stuck at some point, given the weather!

A weather report from SORC:

"WEATHER REPORT

Just had a call from James the ex-undertaker as he's just been for a look over the hill for tomorrow. At the moment access will be 4x4 only - if you're planning to trailer a car there you WILL NOT be able to get it up and over the hill to the site. You will need to unload on the road side of the hill.

This is of course news of the moment and all can change overnight...

Hope you all have a good day, sorry I can't make it as I have a meeting to go to - but the radio will be on in the house and I'll be listening in case I can hear anyone..."

Sounds like fun!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
