i can bring a cool box, disposal bbq and meat products

JZY · 16th July 2007, 3:48pm

if someones got 2 torches bring em coz i dont have one.
also, any idea of the weather this weekend is gonna be like? i would check but i dont actually know where we're going.

I'm bringing tents!

Cool box is a good shout teeb. I reckon a bottle of diluting OJ a crazy number of rolls and some super noodles for emergencies is all we need. I've only got one torch Jiz so I can't help out on that front.

As far as recovered goes... not really. Ko'd when I got in then got up about 10 for some food then couldn't get back to sleep. Woke up at half 8 this morning, I start work at half 8

Now I can't leave cos I have to make up the time. Woe is me.

Probably a ho Sid, text me about it.

The weather reports I can find are only going til Friday so we should see what the score is tomorrow.

I've got some speakers too.

JZY · 16th July 2007, 4:52pm

cool, i got speakers too ill bring em coz one pair will prob run out..

T-Bone · 16th July 2007, 5:10pm

im gonna try and avoid having to use the gas stove (are you still bringing that cacksten?) and focus on rolls, cold meat, peperami's as well as bbq material. the bbq food probably wont last much more than saturday evening.

essentials bog roll and heaps of water.

am i imagining things or was there a wee shop thing in a green garden shed that was shut last time we were there?

oh and snout, bring snout, 80 at least. i can almost hear duffy's voice "tap us a snout teeby" and that will be on the friday evening!

camping chair as well

Mulac · 16th July 2007, 5:25pm

I don't know if the shop will be open - it's possible. I'm going for cold stuff too, Ionly intend to use the stove for the odd hot drink and maybe snoodles.

Bring a towel and don't forget to wash behind your ears. Few plastic bags for wet stuff. PLenty skins. Between four we'll cover it but i fully expect Duffy to turn up with the clothes on his back and a pocket stuffed full of chips.

the food situation is no big deal, pick up something on the way in fort william for lunch and ive got my eye on scampi for sunday dinner in the inn.

what are we talking timewise, you still wanting to meet in fort william?

JZY · 16th July 2007, 6:50pm

good shout on camping chair, will bring a wee stool ive got.

getting grn in an hour since its the only chance ill get this week i think, will decide how much to bring later, i personally think a halfoz is too much. Dont wanna be totally mangoed all weekend passing out early n shit.

Mulac · 16th July 2007, 7:14pm

Just do whatever you reckon Jiz.

I think we should meet in Fort william, but I suppose there isn't any real need. I thought it might be an idea to coordinate the scran and booze but if everyone just looks out for themselves it'll be fine.

Looking at the map, I think it might be further from Aberdeen than Glasgow so I won't mind jumping out for a stretch anyway by that point. I want to get there for mid afternoon. Probably leave mine around half ten and get there between 2 and 3. Means we can get the tents up, fuck aboot, swim then crack a bbq.

thats the dinner menu from the pub, unrelated

JZY · 16th July 2007, 8:54pm

fuck paying 14 quid for a celtic dance band. Feed duffy enough beer and he'll probably deliver a "high octane Celtic dance"

Mulac · 17th July 2007, 7:39am

They'll be playing in a big wooden hut man, we could sit on a hill behind it and hear every note for free.

JZY · 18th July 2007, 11:20am
