There is no plan yet, location is the stumbling block. I think Tim had a possible site. Failing that we need to find somewhere suitable.

yeah that is the problem with the uk - finding somewhere you are allowed to camp. stealth-camping is fun but wouldn't really suit a meet-up like this.

Is a few miles west of Hereford OK? Know of a woodland that will allow hammocks for £5 night. Either end of summer or mid end of September?

thats quite far from the new forest for you though isnt it?

there are places in wiltshire near me that would be closer...

If you can find a place in Wiltshire then yes that would be better. I could make Wiltshire easily even late evening Friday. If you have a place in mind maybe we could start looking at dates etc.
