All set for this extravaganza of food, music and fun in the Yorkshire Dales. Usual plan - turn up any time after 3pm on Friday Sep 4th, depart Sunday any time or Monday morning by 10am, do as you wish in between (there will be a hill walk, a stroll into Settle, or just enjoy the venue). We have two large music rooms, decent catering kitchen and large dining room. Five bunk room sleep between 2 and 18 each, crash on a sofa or kip in the car. For even more luxury there’s an Airbnb in Stainforth, half a mile away. Don’t forget a sleeping bag (or bedding), pillow case and towel.

Someone was asking at the weekend whether a woman had ever attended either Lopwell or Settle. We thought not (perhaps @stu 's daughter once brought Patch to Lopwell for an hour or so, but neither of them stayed long ?). So here’s the perfect* opportunity for a birthday surprise !
Sadly, my last (first) chance to get up to Settle will not be possible.
We permanently leave the UK a week later. Too much to do and too many people to see.
I remember a fleeting visit from a Jack Russell wielding female at Lopwell a few years ago? There’s obviously the Brownie cat burglars too.
FoL#1 Ellie asked if she could come to Settle a couple of years back, and I couldn’t actually envisage a situation she’d hate more than a load of us lot doing our thing. It might have been round the time she asked for help with a survey thingy that I posted up here, and she was impressed with the antecedents of the respondents.
FoL#2 Lauren would actually fit in quite well tbh.
If ladies went I think Kate would join in.
But she would want to know there were several female attendees and they are welcome
She sees it as a boys weekend
How you going to get the Mrs there Andy? Bolt her a chair to the roof of the car like an extended wing walk? All the space inside the cars needed for panels isn’t it?
I might have to hire something. Whilst having her in the back and panels vertically stowed is quite workable for me, doubtless she would voice some sort of concern. Likewise strapping her to the roof won’t fly
