    There are a few of us, there is thread on here about organising a group hang, but it hasn't happened yet.

    It hasn't happened yet, but I'm guessing it will in time. BCUK members are slowly joining HF.

    I'm always up for a trip to scotland and my sea kayak is desperate for a bonny hang-its a scottish virgin.

    Just putting the finishing touches to my set up so should be good to go soon.
    like the above couple of posters have mentioned BCUK is another good source of info
    for meets and what not.

    Found an excellent scout campsite which was coming round to the idea of renting it to us non scouty types, but it's fairly close to the M5 near Bristol and thus a bit noisy(not sure what its like late in the evening yet though)

    The scout campsite near Bristol appears to be onside with a HF meet they just need to run it by the DC(district commisioner?) to get his approval.

    How many people would be wanting to come if it's a goer?
    I said i'd get a better indication over the next few days.
    would a Saturday night suit everyone late october / early november?
