Reference to post 2 of this thread, but leave out the salad as I’m on a diet.
Nice one John and if you need a hand with anything let me know (so I can be busy elsewhere)

[Coops]

Please add me to the list.
For numbers, I'm not sure if I'm classed as one. I'm sure Podge will advise.
I need to come to make sure he sticks to the salad.
If I can help with any preparation please let me know.

Tim you’re 2 of me so we best put you down for at least 4!
Or I could have a word with Mrs Cooper and make sure she feeds you well the day before.

Venues are tuff for this so i may have it @ my house ala foxfish.

Number's will be crucial for parking's sake.

Better get yourself a washing machine drum!

John - How about the Nothe Gardens which has BBQ areas, the Bill has plenty of rocks, Chesil Beach carpark and BBQ east side/black hut, Burton Bradstock if the winds in the East, Ringstead has plenty of room, Tyneham/Warbarrow Bay - just a few ideas

Or you could all come back to my place, but it’s a 160 mile round trip, I know that most of you lot unlike me wouldn’t drive to the ends of the Earth for a sausage in a roll.
uuuuuuummmmmm sausage roll……..

[Coops]

mmm sausage roll. I'm on my way

Wow quite a lot of venues John.Any preference for anybody as the BBQ kit will have to be arranged as well as the food.

John; there used to be purpose built BBQ's at the Nothe and I seem to think along Preston Beach Rd as well, just past the skate board park.. So all we would need is a bag of charcoal and a tent, because the weather is bound to be crap!!!

I will have a sniff around the weekend...

I'm up for it guys - would be good to put a few more faces to names this summer!

Preston Beach only has 1 wrecked BBQ and the Nothe is the same, but plenty of room up at the Nothe to put up a couple of our own BBQ's May be difficult parking if a nice day.

Which makes me think we could all tuck in the far corner of the Chesil Beach carpark or even across the road on the beach East Ham/Black Hut (it's not there anymore!) which will be excellent for the collection of boats and ample parking....

Ben has another idea and if I can remember I will chase it up, but this will also have parking problems...

OK time to get this started again.We do need to find a location for the bbq with good parking.We could just use disposable bbq's so the need to bring one or find one is nil.

How about the car park behind Portland Castle on the grass bank there.Plenty of room?

All suggestions welcome.

Any offers of food also welcome.
