Sounds good - can't beat a good bap - 2nd July may not be ideal due to the FoS, Looks like quite a few PaNners are going.

Switch Staunton on the 16th to the 9th instead of the ruin in South Harting, as i believe the ruin is on private land anyway. Correct me if i'm wrong anyone.
That way Scottie boy can come on the 16th, when he joins the real world of food again!

Vass says South Harting is accesible :-) so there !
6th Aug would be better maybe as we are not set on any place for that as yet
hang on lets just say 16th July for bbq when Scottie can eat again and change the other location dates thingys

Would like to come and burn sausages on 16th Jul. Might be an idea if one thread gets closed either here or SCC to keep all discussions together.
O/T South Harting easily accessible but also visible from road and clearly marked as private. Of limited appeal to a group unless you all want to come home with the same shot.

there are the two options cos I didnt know if Vass and Scottie wanted to fly kites or not
so it can be the common for kites but not as much fun to 'togrpahy as the jumping bridge www.flickr.com/photos/10629863@N07/3393450976/in/set-7215...
at Eastney

Hya, just when I started the idea I didnt know for sure if you was bringing them so left it open
so, common it is then I guess :-)
(I dont mind where it is myself ....cept if its the common can we camp near those brick huts at the top please :-) )
just out the wind a bit there for fires and stuff....
Ill bring some sauces and chilli dips and some steaks
I think Adam had a cheap job lot of bbq's

The common is better for flight with kites because of the winds but the clear space too. Ideal too for BBQ as it's designated as being so.
Eastney not so good for either.
Besides for health and safety reasons when we set fire to the kites we don't want it getting in anyone's way!!! :)

To fly kites we need the wider, more open space on the common behind the War memorial.
We were there last time when AWN organised the BBQ.

To fly the 1.9 metre foil or the delta that is the question.
Whether 'tis nobler on the common to suffer
The strings and ripstop of outrageous flying
Or to take kite-killers against a wind of troubles,
And by flying end them? To fly: to BBQ;
No more; and by a flight to say we end
The revolution and the thousand natural shocks
That Mark and Scott are heir to, 'tis a revolution
Devoutly to be wish'd. To fly, to perfect;
To master: perchance to dream of skill and success: ay, there's the crash;
For in that flight of fancy what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life;
For who would bear the jokes and scorns of time,
