Spring WH Meet – Kinlochleven 21-23 April 2017

Spring WH Meet – Kinlochleven 21-23 April 2017


Postby Jaxter » Mon Oct 31, 2016 2:11 pm

Hey folks,

I have booked sole use of the Blackwater Hostel in Kinlochleven for the weekend of 21-23 April for our next meet. There are 39 beds up for grabs, priced at £40 per person for the 2 nights (Fri & Sat).

www.blackwaterhostel.co.uk

There are great facilities and a variety of room sizes, as well as a lot of lovely hills to climb in the near vicinity. The usual attractions of quiz and home baking of course come as standard :wink:

There are also camping facilities for those wishing to get wet :wink:

If you’d like to attend, please either post on here or PM me and I’ll get in touch about payment details to secure your bunk (as soon as you can please as I need to put the deposit down in the next 2 weeks :shock: ) There will be prizes for the first 3 payments received so get in there! :D

Let's cross our fingers for the weather... :lol:

Suppose since I said I'd do the quiz (to get out of organising the meet!) I better turn up. Put me down for the two nights, I'll see if my sidekick Big Tommo is up for it too.
