Having got positive posts about the intended 'do', here's the plan so far.
I've a couple of fields in North Staffs laying about doing very little, 10 miles from the edge of the Peak District.I am opening it up to you lot for a meet over the weekend of 19th 20th and 21st July next year.
there's enough flatish land for plenty of tents and wobblyboxes, there is electric and water on site and a barn big enough to hold 30. I'll get a 'festival' style toilet and can rig up a washroom with hot and cold.
At this stage it looks like being a fairly simple do, but we'll have a saturday night bonfire and I'll supply the spuds and fillings for them. There will be free tea and coffee all weekend, a big fridge for the beer, a couple of microwaves, kettles etc.
Proff will bring some liquid Devon delights, and there should be some of my alcoholic offerings as well.
There are several supermarkets within 5 miles, a Sainsburys about a mile away and an offie about a mile as well.
The event will be free, with no supported charidies or any hidden costs for those who attend.
If someone wants to organise a ride-out or two, I will start a thread for it, same for any other off-site activities.
Post code for the area is ST7 3PS.
Here's a close-up, the kite shaped fields left and right of the barns
