October Unofficial

May 04, 2006 26 Replies

When - October 27th 28th 29th 2006



Where - Across the sea at Anglesey

formatting link
How (much)- Depends on what you do but basic off roading one day £23.50 , or two days inc two nights camping £35



What - Offroading, Camping, Tank Driving , Survival , Paintballing etc etc



Why - Why not :-)



I'm sure I can sort a reccie if the interest is sufficent. This is the site that the video earlier in the week which I linked, they have now updated the site as linked above.



Good road access across North Wales, Fantasic scenary. We can always find a freindly camp site if the facilities (shelter, showers) are lacking at this place and your never too far from a beach... Ok it'll be October but at least we can fly a kite.



Thoughts.

It's just up the road from Pete's Eats, in Llanberis.

Also in Llanberis, the Dinorwig power station and the electric mountain tour is something I keep meaning to do and never actually achieve.

tours in October by advance booking only and minimum numbers. I'll email and see what "minimum numbers" means...

My mother is from Llanberis!!

I'll try and make it to this, might drag along the local Landy Loons as well (the sensible ones)

Can one make such a distinction?

H'mm about 2 weeks before the bambino is set to arrive, will have to see if I can convince SWMBO.... After all, she may want to pop it out early!!!

May have to give it a miss though :-(

You sort the Kettle mount on that brazier and we'll get the towels.... An Unofficial nipper would be a first (well for the group anyway)

well when we saw the midwife she did offer us a home birth. Will have to go back and tell her we've changed our mind and want a field birth......

got an auto-response to the effect that the person who deals with that sort of enquiry is away 'til May the 8th. Still, there's no rush.

The quarries above the station are amazing too, well worth a wander around. My former climbing club has a hut there.

Along the lines of the recent unofficial, if it's possible to have tours on Sunday morning, then that's Sunday sorted out :-)

Legends are made of such events - don't worry, I still have the field first aid kit - with some nice drugs and a sutures kit in it too.

hmmmpf. I never saw you offering nice drugs around at the last unofficial.

You should have come to the model village :-)

|| . Dunno if SWMBO would appreciate an audience of AFL nutters though

At least they'd be used to shouting "push, push".

just imagine, getting the tow rope and pulling it out using a kinetic recovery method!!!

you and that suture kit.....

I spent an afternoon wandering around the quarries above Dinorwig at Easter, some fantastic stuff to see!. Theres also an interesting quarry over the road as well. If anyone's interested, i'll be happy to show people round the sites i know.

Should be up for attending the unofficial.
