ive got a 3x3 gazebo , i can bring and my tent at a push could be used for housing personnel , although , JANE must give permission since its really her tent .
Im supposing chris , that you know Jane is vegetarian , and i cant eat vegetables (onions , mushrooms that sort of thing)
Its an absolute prerequisite that greek salad is made or Jane will have a fit

Hi Dave,
Any tent or gazebo will be of use I am sure so if you have room bring it. Also Claire says she is putting together a little salad and will have some fetter cheese so you should be safe from reprisals there.
Chris1roll,
I have sent you an email, of course you can come late or not. But be prepared to stay for you never know what may happen. I promise to get you woken early in the morning!!
Regards
Chris

It is looking good, I have ignored the weather forecasts and ordered sun so we should be OK.
Just installed a fridge in the bar outside and will slowly be filling it with goodies today.
I have even taken the day off work to finish sorting things. My son is slaving away in the office complaining that I live one big holiday. Oh youth so foolish and unable to understand the finer things in life!
Looking forward to seeing you all. In terms of arrival time, for the life of me I cannot remember when you started arriving last year but I suppose lunchtime, but no worries just arrive and if we are still doing work you can help, if not you can drink, sunbathe, drool (over cars that is) talk about cars none stop or whatever takes your fancy.
Regards
Chris
