Bear Bones Summer Camp -CANCELLED!

[Cheeky Monkey]

Due to a truly underwheming reponse the summer camp weekend on July 20th/21st has been cancelled ... sorry if you were planning on coming but you should have said so

That's a shame. How many did you get in the end Stu?

I wasn't one because of clashes though the whole thing was interesting.

I reckon you'd do better writing a book Just look at the Ultimate Hang.

Oh dear, that's just the way things go sometimes I guess.

Either that or we're all really knowledgeable / arrogant about our knowledge / ignorant of our ignorance that it wasn't understood how useful this could be

I thought you might have been banned because of this:

Yes, quite interested, if only to pull faces at FF from the back of the room

Stu, Ian and FF,
Shame this was cancelled... I thought it was a great idea and really wanted to come but I knew work commitments were going to got in the way for this two week period. That's my excuse for not showing my hand earlier.. sorry :(
I'll be up for it IF you decide to have a re-run... thanks for putting time into preparing something different. Might be good for the winter as there may be more 'skills' to learn to keep yourself comfortable (safe?) in more challenging conditions.
Have a great weekend on the border. I'd like a ride round there too but I'm away with work too much at present.
Cheers, Mark

Cheers Mark ... I think the idea is still viable, so would certainly think about having another stab at it. As you say, maybe winter would sharpen up the self preservation instincts

[barney]

yes and if I read the post properly I'll know to send an email next time !!!

I think I've made far worse comments than that and I've still managed to stay right side up on the forum ;-)

Still, given Stu can post a picture of himself in a novelty buoyancy ring I think any chance my humour might puncture a delicate egos is ..... unlikely 8-)

[Zoglug]

Just wondered if this, or anything like this is likely to happen in the future? I would certainly be interested in attending.

[adjustablewench]

ooooh i got quite excited then thinking it had been resurrected . . . .

Sorry AW! I was having a trial run the other day, packing all my gear onto my bike trying to get a decent pitch with my tarp, which was going disasterously! I then remembered this was spoke about and thought i would inquire again!

[Bearbonesnorm]

I'd be happy to resurrect it if there were any / enough interest.

[Zoglug]

Im certainly interested. I cant do the last two weeks of August due to being away with the family but other than that i should be good!

I was actually going to suggest the Aug Bank Holiday weekend ( 23rd-25th)

[Taylor]

Not in school hols

[Bearbonesnorm]

Not in school hols

Is that?

(a) Don't hold it during the school holidays?

(b) Do hold it during the school holidays?

(c) Something else?

[Taylor]

Don't hold it in school holibobs.
Fun police have a lot of say during holidays.

I'm in Legoland with the family Aug Bank Holiday, can't do the week beforehand either for some reason Stu.

Apart from that if I'm free I'm in and this year I will confirm by email, text, tweet, letter, phone call, PM

[darbeze]

Just back from holiday the Thursday before that weekend so probably won't be able to make it then...

:(

[Ian]

I can't do that weekend either...

[Bearbonesnorm]

Right then ... it'll certainly not be the Aug Bank Holiday

No idea when it will be, might have to be next year now unless it's renamed Winter Camp.
