In my experience, keep that bloody door closed and the fire lit.
Always keep the stew pot topped up.
Bring enough beer and wine to last until spring.
...alternatively...is there a meet up in Seville at that time of year too? ...just asking :-)

The meet/camp will be outside the Wanlockhead Inn itself, so no need for us to find a campsite, I'm sure a fire wont be a problem and probably best to bring some firewood if possible. I'll check with James who runs the inn if fires are okay

Thats great Aaron thanks, might be a couple arriving in the afternoon.
Feel free to give him my number 07557 508443 if any issues.

I’ll be bringing the frontier stove so if open fires are an issue we should still be ok.
