"A gathering of Defenders around Finchingfield pond would be interesting"I'm in on that, coffee and cake and a short drive out would be great.

I was wondering if September-ish would be OK.

Harvest would be over, children back at school and the rugby and shooting seasons not fully under way.

Maybe a few less tourists in the village and more room to park.

However if people would prefer to come sooner, I would still be in.

(If later, I'd be happy to put up a reminder thread nearer the time).

I would love to come along

I'm only about 15 miles away, so would be great!
Weekends are fine with me, as I'm a teacher. Just can't do Burghley weekend - 1st & 2nd September.

Thanks

OK, so looking at Sundays that are possible for most people it seems we'll have to go for Sunday 23rd September.

If most can make that I'll put up a separate thread under a different title, to see who else might be interested.

Finchingfield can get quite packed if the weather is good, so if there are enough vehicles to do a "parking rules" photo and there is not enough room in The Fox car park, we could pop a mile up the road (to a meadow I know

) to get them all together for a photo, before we disperse.

Meanwhile, let's see who can do that date and take it from there?
