I might be, where are people staying, have you decided?

Quite a loud grunt of interest from me... Tom, I could give you the cash for the badge there?

Simon mentioned the Grangemoor Hotel as being close, I've looked it up on the internet and it doesn't look bad. I've not booked yet, but I must get around to it.

Yeh that's fine.

I know 'drop box' dust collection is all the rage at the moment but........

Is anyone attending the bash who is interested in building a Burgess style cyclone? I have a spare IKEA conical flowerpot which is used in the design and would be happy to bring it along and exchange it for a donation to the Woodland Trust

Just like this one

I would put it into the raffle but it might be viewed as a booby prize unless the winner just happened to be planning to build a cyclone.

I'll take that Bob, I think...

Have just been rechecking the logistics of the trip and doesn't look too bad for me, just an hour and three quarters drive, so don't think I will bother with staying over after all Tony. Easier to get senior management approval that way too :roll: :lol:

Cheers, Paul

OK Tom. It has your name on it!

Hi guys,

I'm afraid life is still giving me a right good shoeing at the moment, so I won't be able to attend the bash after all.

Have a good one, all.

That could happen, in which case, certainly.

Hi, sorry I haven't posted but I've been working away a lot recently and don't get much time.

Just to confirm, the bash is in my workshop which is Unit 2, Larkstore Park, Lodge Road, Staplehurst, Kent. TN12 0QY. It's on the other side of the road from Maidstone Engineering and nearer the entrance, I'm second unit on the left.

If there are a few people who want to go for a curry after the bash there is a good curry house close to my home in Maidstone which is a 20 minute drive from the workshop. The Tandoor Mahal is also short walk from the Grangemoor Hotel for people who wish to stay locally. I'm always up for a curry.

My inlaws and some friends have stayed at the Grangemoor and seem to like it, infact the sparkies I use look forward to a stay there.

We will circulate maps and instructions nearer the time but if anyone wants us to book them a room please drop me an email.

Guys

I've got a lot of old woodworking mags that SteveM gave me a while back. IIRC they're all The Woodworker. I can bring them if anyone is interested? They are destined for pulp fiction if not....

Missus on my back to get rid, so be quick....

 

[chingerspy]

Wizer,

I'd be really interested in the mags.

 

[wizer]

yours

 

[chingerspy]

Yay! Your curry is on me if that happens then

 

[Dalboy]

Sounds like a little bit of a swap meet If any one is interested I have some Corian (Ideal for slimline pens) you will need to cut into strips

 

[wizer]

I'll take a small piece Dal, always wanted to try it.
