Ive just joined and seen this? Glad i did! Im assuming locals can attend without staying? 😀

Hi, not even thought about that, but can see no reason at all that you cannot visit during the Star Camp. Just remember though that Red Light rules will be in effect from dusk until dawn. It is always possible for one of us to guide you and your car in or out whilst following a red light though.

Be good to see you 😃

I take it that you will visit the Star camp by car ?

Yeah ill drive down and probably park nearby and walk. Thinking of just leaving the gear at home 

 

[Physopto]

There is no where in easy or short distance to walk from. Probably about a mile  to the nearest safe parking. So I suggest either come in daylight or give us a call when about 2\300 yards away onside lights. We can easily sort out the rest. As long as we know there should be no problems.

We look forwards to meeting you 😀

Best to check some of us will be around, and probably afternoon best after all the clear skies which are booked in 😁

[Ricky Graham]

Will sort something out. I’d rather be running my gear if forecast is good so eithervwaybi will visit

Hi Damian try reading what I said more carefully 🤣

I agreed either daylight or at night.

I can see the Micky taking is going to start way before we even get there ....... 😂 Oh goody!

Actually I am over in the area just now. Weather is very poor with rain and wind. So hope it improves over the next month and a half!

Hi Andy,

Today, here justs south of Portpatrick, the weather has been red hot. No wind and beautiful outdoors. Hope your stay is as good. How is Sandra?  Hope you are both in great shape. 

All the best.

 

[AndyKeogh]

Sandra continues to make progress, but will still not camp!  Are you up there house hunting?

Not house hunting at present. We took our house off the market 2years ago approx because of Covid.

Just a holiday with friends.

Glad to hear Sandra is doing better. Annette and I  often think about her.

Annette does not blame her for not wanting to camp, we feel the same. We like our creature comforts too much 😃

We are here for the next 2 weeks or so.

Stay safe.

Hopefully there will be fuel to make the journey 🤣🤣

[Physopto]

Hi Everyone,

For your information.

 

Just spoke to Lesley yesterday at the camp site.

 

The camp site is fully booked for this Autumn Star Camp and has been for some considerable time.

 

Some folk are still ringing up the owner asking if anything has changed as to pitch availabilities.

It has not and as such will remain so gauging from our conversation.

Lesley has said in no uncertain terms that she will not be taking any more bookings for this Star Camp !

 

 

One rather sad point is that I spoke to Mike and he has stated that he is very unlikely to attend because of ongoing building work being done to his home.

Things are dragging out and he is feeling the pressure to get it sorted out as soon as can be done to allow him a Christmas without worry.

 

 

One final note is if you are double inoculated, great.

If not please wear a face mask when in close contact with other attendees, for your own safety and that of everyone else.

Thanks.

 

 

So folks, all that is left to say at present is,

I  hope you all can get there (fuel and Covid-19 permitting) as it will be nice to see everyone, old and new faces alike.

All the best, stay safe.
