+walkergeoff and wife Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 (edited) Following the success of last year's Binfield Cache Bash, Jon of the Dewdrops and I are planning to run another one this year. Originally, last year, we wanted to use the May Day Bank Holiday, but there was a clash, so we moved our date. We would like, if possible, to return to the May Day Bank Holiday this year as it would be quite a bit easier for us both if we could. We would like to know whether anyone in the area of Berks, Beds, Bucks or Surrey are planning an event for April 29th so we can avoid a clash. Thanks.

+Belplasca Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Any chance of holding it on the 30th? There's the South Wales meet on Saturday 29th... Bob Quote Link to comment
+Laughalot Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 April 30th would be better for me to - I have a friends wedding to attend on the 29th ! Laughalot Quote Link to comment
+Mr'D Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Hiya, Geoff and I have not set a definite date on this yet and we are open to suggestions, however neither of us can make Sunday 30th. The other possibility of course is Monday 1st May. If we can have some more feedback we will go with the majority. Thanks, Jon Quote Link to comment
+Write and Mane Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 The First South Wales Event is indeed booked for the 29th April 2006. This was the first date we could book at the venue and should it be a success hopefully will become a regular Event. Mane Quote Link to comment
+Birders Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Accidents or Bird Flu permitting we'd almost certainly join the fun...... No preference for dates. Quote Link to comment
+chipstix Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 We'd like to join in, too...slight preference for May 1st but not essential. Quote Link to comment
+Bekandian Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Really enjoyed last years bash, so we'd love to come. 29th would be highly preferable but if it has to be the 1st, we'll still be there Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 We were there last year and it was brill! This year ... well we had been planning on the Wales meet and making a weekend of it. Nothing definite yet cos its too early to say. I would say "Don't worry!". Go ahead ... plan your meet ... there are plenty of cachers to go around! As this sport grows there will be an inevitable clash with event dates - do what suits you best! If we don't get to the Wales meet then yours will be a dead cert! Good luck with the planning - do your own stickers this year! LOL Quote Link to comment
+kewfriend Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Kewfriend and Fewkinder might easily be tempted Quote Link to comment
+purple_pineapple Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 As would Mr and Mrs PP..! Quote Link to comment
+Laughalot Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 I agree with Cache Hoppers, do whatever suits you both as I am sure from previous events I have been to you will always get a good turnout. The Monday 1st is also fine for me at the moment, but don't let that sway the vote - hee hee ! Laughalot Quote Link to comment
+Phil and Ruth Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Saturday or Monday are good for us! If it's then we'll probably be there. We will need some more Binfield caches as we've cleaned the area up! Phil and Ruth Quote Link to comment
+Another Mr Lizard Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 We'd be up for this, any of those days would suit us. Quote Link to comment

team tisri Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Depending on exactly where and when we might be up for it. Considering making a long break of the one in Wales (and seeing the Brecons while we're there) so we're very much "floating voters" Quote Link to comment
+Mad H@ter Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 We would love to come, but unfortunately we shall be going to the South Wales meet. Quote Link to comment
+plippy Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 plipey and pipey would like to come be great to meet all those who have helped us Quote Link to comment
+slimey Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 As we're just down the road, I'm sure we can fit this one in (assuming it's child friendly...) Simon Quote Link to comment
+Mr'D Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Definitely child friendly! OK, Geoff and I will discuss best date from the posts and we will have a date very soon. Thanks all! Jon Quote Link to comment
+Mr'D Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Pleased to say that this years event will be on Saturday 29th April. Thanks to all those who have expresssed preferences. The bash pages are being prepared and should be live soon. Dewdrop & walkergeoff Quote Link to comment
+purple_pineapple Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 rather looking forward to this! Is iut still on, and is there an event page I've missed? Cheers! Dave Quote Link to comment
+walkergeoff and wife Posted February 28, 2006 Author Share Posted February 28, 2006 rather looking forward to this! Is iut still on, and is there an event page I've missed? Cheers! Dave Jon is, as I write, preparing it. I think that the event page cannot go out more than two months before the event? Quote Link to comment
+Mr'D Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 The page is now up! Binfield Bank Holiday Cache Bash Quote Link to comment
+walkergeoff and wife Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Less than two weeks to go to the second Binfield Cache Bash. Look out for new caches especially for this event. If you are coming, please add your name to the page, and let me know what food you would like. Orders have to be in by Monday April 24th. See you there! Quote Link to comment
+Mr'D Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Shameless bump? There should be 4 or 5 new caches available in the area for this bash. Binfield Bank Holiday Cache Bash Late-comers welcome, though take your chances on the food... LOL! Jon Quote Link to comment
