Check out what I got from EBAY for Lostock

What a bargain..

I was going to buy a little aluminium fold up table for my laptop from BCF not long ago....was $90 just for the table.

3 man tent with 2 aluminium tables and 2 small chairs.
Total cost for the lot was $100.

Well done Tony,

Sounds like a great bargain to me, but where are you going to keep the scope?

Erik and I are hiring a small Van to get all the gear in. and sleeping in the bunk beds.
And yes, I am bringing the sausage making gear along, so you will get to taste them.

Iceman has agreed to a lunchtime sausage sizzle, which we can sell, profits going to IIS to help with the cost of the weekend.
I hope they have BBQ facilities there.

See you there.

Mike

The scope will be permanantly set up with the waterproof cover you made me Mike...the bits and pieces will be stored in the tent during the day.

Not long to go now.

Iceman,

I will bring enough sausage stuff for a couple of days, including bread rolls, if we run out we can always go to town.
I will bring a mixture of beef and pork to cater to everyones tastes.

Mike
