matty40s Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) It may help if you suggest exactly (date or two|)when you need help. Bacon butties are an ideal draw. Edited March 6, 2014 by matty40s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matty40s Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I'm glad someone'son my wavelength Fizz, early May is anywhere from end of April to May 15th in my book. Were I working up there at the time, would be happy to spend half a day , however, am not going to bring a tent and wait for someone to perhaps come down...they may decide to go the other way...

Guest Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Or maybe the OP was just testing the waters to see if any body could possibly help but say when they could? In early May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would ask why are people so ready to be unnecessarily critical of this forum and it's members it's getting bloody tiresome to be frank. Oh and you might want to disguise your email addy before the spam bots grab it....... Edited March 7, 2014 by The Dog House Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
