BCF BBQ 2015 (Mwahahahaha)

Happy New Year All,

Not been posting as much as I've wanted to due to fatherhood commitments. Babies really do monopolise your time!

Anyway... I wasn't sure whether this was going to be possible this year and wasn't really going to go ahead with it. However the topic of having another BCF BBQ at my parents farm randomly popped up and the concensus was that they wanted us to have another.

Quoting my (slightly inebriated) mum

Really want to join in with this one, this year!

I'm currently on the job hunt because PhD finishes soon so will come back later to vote for a date - or if it's been chosen, confirm/deny.

Sweet!

I don't want to be mocked by Spliff Dog so I will make more effort to come this year.

Lots of for you and your parents!

[Doovy]

Hehe my Spliff Dog photo making it's appearance

I'll be there. Will see which dates everyone votes for, I'm pretty easy apart from my wedding most likely in June.

What is beer floating?
Will I need my rubber Dingy? *edit - now that I'm home, I can see the picture, which just about answers my question
Does it mean sitting in my dingy drinking beer?
I should bring my life jacket.

I'm in. Either of the last two dates suit me, but voted 31st - 3rd to suit pay day.

Can we use a hose out of interest? That hill we were on last year would make for an amazing water slide with enough tarpaulin and washing up liquid.

Edit: Something like this:

Re: your beer float.

I do a fair bit of canoeing these days.

10 miles on green water in a purpose designed tandem canoe while both knowing how to paddle it and being sober is a reasonable distance for a leisurely day trip.

To give you an idea, my most recent trip on grade I moving water, on a reasonably quick flowing navigation with three competant paddlers, leisurely but efficiently paddling with the water flow covered 4 miles in about 3.5 hours (admittedly with one short portage round a weir).

10 miles in inflatables + alcohol? I honestly can't see it being done in a day.

Have you checked the route? The Towy has some bits I wouldn't take a fully rigged canoe on, never mind a lie-lo.

The following link may be useful, breaks sdown the river into sections with features and graded sections. Anything over grade I in a cheap inflatable with no experience is highly risky.

No Afghanistan this year, so I see little getting in my way, any date is good!

[el_oso]

Am a bit lost with this as I don't even know what I'm doing for dinner tonight let alone 7months from now. Flexible on dates, but voted anyway.

Really enjoyed it last year, so no hesitation in coming again.

thanks to you and your folks for offering your space yet again.

Not so sure I'll be up for the booze float per se, I'm just interested in getting my brain melted in a field full of weirdos.

Still, game on.

If the 'beer floating' doesn't appeal to many then we won't do it. Just an idea... i'm going to do it at somepoint regardless so i'm not bothered.

Dat travel.

Depends on vehicle in all honesty but should be up for this!

Not game for sitting on flowing water but if it's warm a water slide is a sick idea

[temeluchus]

If the fiesta drivers of Liverpool can suppress their urges to kill me i shall be attending.

Dunno it's wales and it's us so it's probably gonna be cold as fuck unless we're lucky again, not sure about getting wet unless it involves Clanger and miss_petal_briefs and errrr whatever lucy's name is on here

As summery as we can make it please, that'd be nice
I'm in whatever, might ride down but I have a feeling the XJ will shit itself
