Doombar is fantastic. Himbenny and Herbenny just came in and we had a couple.
I thought I'd give the "greywell martini" a go. Ordered 3 measures of gin and a dry vermouth with ice and lemon. Came to £9.20 ... ouch! Oh well... it's back to the Doombar I think!

I think we all spent a bit at the bar. I ordered food tonight... whitebait + steak. Nice meal.
Went to get some firewood, and made some traction mats out of some discarded bread baskets I found in the woods. Other than that a lazy day!

Another great weekend at Greywell - lovely catching up with you all. Must be something about that place as the weather is always perfect there. Feeling very chilled even after spending the weekend with 5 teenagers!!! They all had a brilliant time too and loved sleeping in the teepee. Richard said we are welcome back anytime so hopefully might be able to arrange something for the Summer

It was really great to see you both Mr and Mrs Benny as well as everyone else And we never had time to have a bash on the guitars together; I'd found my capo too. The southern frosties is a fantastic group, and even better now we've all met a few times!

Anyway, I reckon you can be an DefinitelySpringNowMongoose. It was a lovely weekend, and it didn't even pour with rain yesterday like they said it was going to.

Thanks everyone for a great weekend, I was a bit apprehensive going on my own but shouldn't have worried. Himself is trekking in snow and sounds like he is enjoying it...
Looking forward to Hereford

Thats the great thing about meets ...if you need to be on your own or you want to mix then its entirely up to you. There is no pressure on anyone which is what I love ..I have enough pressure during the week. We like to take off early in the morning because we are up with the lark and sometimes we like to get going and get on with the things we need to. We cant always say goodbye to people as they might not be awake....I worry that people think its rude but its just how it is..... I am always happy to see you all and thats the main thing x

I was vaguely aware of your engine but it was quite a surprise when I opened the blind to see you gone!
Glad the coffee is ok. Should keep you going for a week or two. Hope the pain has eased now you are back in your own bed.

What a brilliant weekend... thanks for your company everyone and thanks to Millie for organising everything and for rescuing that cyclist! Still can't believe how gorgeous the weather was. We took the scenic route home this time and got back in an hour and 15 and a lot less miles... much better! Van unpacked, washing all done and getting cabin fever already. Martin's taken the van up to get the blown tyre replaced, so fingers crossed they decide it was faulty and do it for nothing, although we won't push it. It's the last thing you expect to happen when you've just bought four new tyres though! Hope it didn't take too long for you to thaw out after the craft fair Linda!
