When you gotta go you gotta go!!!!!!

Sounds good to me, we go past Quatt to get to Shrews anyhow.

Hmmm I got the times mixed up earlier. Rafting starts at 13:30, made it an afternoon slot to let folks get there in reasonable time. It will be all finished by 16:00. I suggest we all need to be there by 13:00.

So my plan of a short rideout after the rafting is shot in the foot, but can organise a short ride prior to rafting if folks fancy it. The ride from the rafting center to my house is a fun 30-45 minutes if folks still want to do the BBQ.

The ride prior and the BBQ after still sounds good

Well, that may mean we'll have to give the BBQ a miss, but it puts Quatt back as the meet point

Here's an idea, Mike.............why not come across to Quatt for brekkie, and then you can do that nice road over the moors with us

We would get to Quatt for 9.30 to leave no later than 11.

shame about BBQ, see how you are fixed for time though. I'm very easy going about such things.

Might see what other folks are doing before saying defo come down to Quattford, may have others needing a guide to get to the center....

BBQ after is a good idea. I do a mean Jerk Chicken kebab!

Given that the rafting finishes at 4-4.30, who would be up for the BBQ?

[Drew Carey]

I would love to have a BBQ, but unfortunatley, due to the time and it being a sunday an all, we will need to head back so we get home at a decent hour. But thanks for the offer Mike.

me

Thanks to everyone for paying for the trip promptly.

Just need to get an idea of how many for the BBQ. My son and daughter (our raft guide) likely to be there plus some random boaters / friends. I would like to extend the invite to the BBQ to all Border Patrollers.

Names in usual fashion (i.e copy and paste the list and then add yourself)

1. Luckypants
2. BluePete
3. Speedy Claire
