Mercian Mountaineering Club

We're very keen too.

Sign me up too please

I did manage to ditch the on call (and even book a pitch), so will be there

I hate to say this.......

I’ve just had a concert confirmed for May 30th. It’s outdoors so it might get cancelled if there’s rain. If that does happen I’ll definitely come up to Yorkshire. I’m really sorry as I was really looking forward to this one. Hope everybody is ok!

So, I’ve booked a table at the pub (The Bridge Inn) on Saturday night for 6. I’ve invited a few folk into the table who I’ve seen the least during lockdown. The chap whom I spoke to today said I was wise to book early, with it being a bank holiday weekend. There are a few pub options near the camp site. I’d suggest not leaving it too late to book if you are keen to eat inside.

Hi all! First meet for me. Managed to book by the skin of my teeth.

Hi Sian. Your second meet isn’t it? I enjoyed our climbing at Birchen late last summer. Hope we have as good weather this time too. How’s your injury?

Sorry Sian, I’m thinking of Zoe. It’s my age. At 44 things don’t work like they should . Welcome, I hope you enjoy the meet.

Let me know if anyone would like a lift. Looking to head up early fri.

I've checked with the campsite about cash/card payments and it must be cash (no card machine).

Thanks Naomi. That’s good to know.

We’ll be there by noon-ish so will try to bag a good spot. Camping in my yellow North Face dome tent so you spot us easily enough.

Hey mercians

Stew thanks for the heads up about the table booking and a great idea! Can’t remember the last time we all sat in a pub together having drinks and food .

As social sec I have crawled out of my burrow and picked up the phone.

I called the bridge inn pub this evening and they have enough space to allow us all to go for dinner on Saturday evening @6pm. I have booked enough spaces to cover 16 Mercians and with stews table already sorted we would all be in the pub together!

I have provisionally booked enough tables to ensure all Mercians can come if they want to.

Please post YES! if you are interested as I need to confirm the exact number by Tuesday morning!

Much love

Harry

As we have had waaay more interest in this than I had anticipated. The restaurant has asked if we can choose our meals in advance! If you are like me and don't know what I am eating tonight, then this is quite an ask!

Anyway I have attached a copy of the menu. I have included a spreadsheet link below, Please fill this out with your food selections and then save it. YOU HAVE UNTIL WEDNESDAY 10PM TO MAKE YOUR CHOICES

Good shout Harry. I’ve got myself, Vic (of course), Naomi and Dave and Karl and Lucy on the table I booked.

Hi Harry

Yes from me and Amandeep.
