I'll be there! Should be great fun.

It will be COLD in April this year out at Ilford - will definitely be looking to get a freezer suit before the event.

Look forward to camping together again too - good company, great skies - who can ask for more!

I've split the cold/freezer suit posts into their own thread so that this thread can be left to talk about SPSP15 and who's going (and not how cold it is )
