Would you people like me to bring cakes/ baked munchie goods? Or another chili or summit?
Cakes and some other stuff would be good, dont need more chilli though, there will be nearly three gallons as it is

I could bring a stack of bacon, sausages & eggs for breakfast. They cook great on BBq's
Yes please, I sm sure folks will be bringing bacon & sausages etc, we usually pool it all together for a big breakfast.

Main focus has been Saturday night dinner, which looks well covered for us all now. Sunday & Monday breakfast will sort of come together without any organisation as long as we have the food. As for Sunday, a BBQ would be good, I will bring a few items for myself and some of those disposable BBQ's.

Is anyone able to bring a Gazebo? those £29.99 jobs from the supermarket. I will be bringing two, one for the entrance to our tent if the weather is poor, and one for all of us to use communally. We usually link several together to create a big covered area with folding tables and chairs under.

Dib, dib, dib.

I've got the Gazebo from last year. IF I can fit it in the Atom I'll bring it.....

I'm pretty certain I can get the two chairs, table, tent, sleeping bag, stove, clothes, torch etc in I MAY be pudhing it slightly with the Gazebo though...

It's a big pot, allegedly this is 24 servings. When its cooled down, its going in the deep freeze, then it will be one hell of an ice pack for the beers during the trip down

Yes, that's a chunk of green chilli you can see on the bottom right and its got Green & Blacks chocolate in there too, nothing finishes a chilli like chocolate

Wow!

Never thought of trying chocolate in chilli.

I can pick up some fresh baguettes from Tesco just before the meet. I'll bring some cheese too, anything else I could get?

Sorted some bread rolls, Pringles and a few bits.

Just been down to Tesco's and bought:
couple of packs of sausages
couple of packs of bacon
couple of packs of bread buns
a few packs of Nachos nibbles thingy's and a couple of dips
couple of cartons of fresh orange
some chorizo
case of san Miguel

oh, and couple of frisbees cos they were 48p inc. buy one get one free - bargain!!! and double as a handy plate.

Working on the principle of buying a bit more than I will eat for breakfast, and that we will all chuck our various offerings into a pot (not literally) then we should have plenty... bearing in mind that there is also the cafe and burger vans on site.

presuming we have something to cook on that is
