18th August

The location and travel directions are now available and the updated gathering programme is also up on the web.

If you'd like to help with setting up the site, we're starting on the afternoon of Thursday 21st. We'd love you to come and help, you can just turn up whenever you can make it. If you can bring your own tools that would be great: hammers, spades, saws, sledge hammers, drills, measuring tape, pliers and screw drivers are all useful. Please let us know if you are planning on bringing tools. The site mobile (active from Thursday onwards is: 07789 331857. We probably won't be able to give lifts from the train station as we are in short supply of vehicels for set-up. If you are bringing a van we could use for picking up stuff or people, let us know!
