You really need to come out of Derbyshire from time to time 😛 tallow candles would be good 🙂

It's a good idea, but i think it'll spoil the candle/lamplit atmosphere we're aiming for. Thanks for the offer though!! :flowers:

I would have done it, especially as you were making free food !

Next year we can have it in Cleveland, although there might be the slight issue of everyones oil lamps, tallow candles and flaming torches going out the second we step inside. :lol:

I'd come but I'm away as well.
Actually that's not entirely true. I'd come if I wasn't away and if I wasn't pathalogically adverse to anything requiring a sence of fun...

Is there no Misery emoticon on this site?

We could just be really rude to you all day Rich - then you wouldn't enjoy it at all 😮

Location updated for this- We're meeting at the Wizard pub. Ed's going to hopefully organise some parking permits for the National Trust car park next door. :thumbup:

Quick bump for this - at present there's only four of us on the trip. Is no one else interested, or is the weather putting people off? 😞

If there's only 4 it might be worth postponing until the weather is a bit nicer? It would be a pity if it was such a small turnout - we had at least 12 people last year I think!
