We’ll meet at the crag, I will aim to be there for 11am.
Please let me know if you are going to attend this meet.
Traditionally the pub venue for this meet has been the Fish Inn. This is now under new ownership and is now called, in a travesty of history, the Buttermere Court Hotel. We’ll give it a chance.
If the weather forecast on Thursday looks unpromising I’ll send out a note.
