That's gone in the diary:-)

Thought it would be a nice place to hold a punknic, thought I should get the ball rolling. A rolling jagger gathers no moss. But hey! the bantock house thing sounds good. We should do that next. Maybe before or after the winterbourne do...

Aubreay Fallowfield · « **Reply #52 on:** March 22, 2014, 02:15:25 pm »

Yeah OK I'm a bit busy for the next week or so but I'll do a trip over there and see what I can arrange. As soon as I've got some news I'll let you all know

Just said I'll go to Haden Hill House - my first event! Hopefully, I will have managed to pull together an outfit for the day. Looking forward ot the opportunity of meeting people.

Welcome prof.

Ah, brilliant! Welcome sir!

A little over a month until the Winterbourne House & Gardens trip. (Saturday May 3 at 11am). Looking forward to it!

Prof. Comberthwaite · « **Reply #58 on:** April 05, 2014, 06:59:10 pm »

Could someone advise, via PM if necessary, what the form and format of next Saturday at Haden Hill is?

Thanks

Turn up and be splendid!

Yes I realise my previous post was a little facetious but I couldn't resist. As to a proper answer to your question I'm as ignorant as you are. That's rarely stopped me though!

Aubreay Fallowfield · « **Reply #61 on:** April 06, 2014, 01:19:41 pm »

No I agree with you Kevin.

Turn up, be splendid and make of the day what you will. There is no "agenda" other than to enjoy yourself

Lucius Baxter · « **Reply #62 on:** April 06, 2014, 01:47:32 pm »

I think, the main idea was.... As fine as I can remember... Was about 12:00 pm. Probably meeting around by the house, or the surrounding grass.

Kevin C Cooper Esq · « **Reply #63 on:** April 06, 2014, 01:56:43 pm »

As it's a picnic or "Punknic" it would be remiss of you to forget the picnic basket. If you're aprehensive because it's your first steampunk event then fret not. A nicer group of people you could not wish to meet.

Aubreay Fallowfield · « **Reply #64 on:** April 06, 2014, 05:58:02 pm »

And we don't bite.....only nibble appreciatively

Prof. Comberthwaite · « **Reply #65 on:** April 06, 2014, 10:46:48 pm »

OK. I shall endeavour to attire splendiferously and bake some comestibles

Lucius Baxter · « **Reply #66 on:** April 07, 2014, 12:25:01 pm »

Fallowfield may not bite... But I know some people who do. Though they shan't be at the punknic.

Aubreay Fallowfield · « **Reply #67 on:** April 09, 2014, 05:28:49 pm »

I shall leave the gnawing teeth at home good sir!

By the way brass goggles UK is on twitter. They have retweeted a request containing details of the punknic

Esme Moore · « **Reply #68 on:** April 12, 2014, 06:38:29 am »

I can't find any details about the Haden Hill do aside from the mention of a punknic and midday here - perhaps I'm being blind. If that's at Haden Hill park in Sandwell, that appears to be within walkable distance of Old Hill railway station, so I might be able to come. If someone can confirm details asap, I'll do my best to attend if I can as I've been a tad unwell, and a touch of sun, sarnies and silliness is just what the doctor ordered!

Never mind the Cogs · « **Reply #69 on:** April 12, 2014, 06:50:54 am »

hi noon punknic is all the information I am responding to as well !

Esme Moore · « **Reply #70 on:** April 12, 2014, 07:32:40 am »

Where was this event first publicised - anyone? Or put another way, all I have is 'Haden Hill' and 'midday', and never having heard of Haden Hill before, that's not a lot to go on. I'm presuming it IS the park in Sandwell, is that correct? Is there somewhere particular that folk are meeting?

Prof. Comberthwaite · « **Reply #71 on:** April 12, 2014, 07:54:27 am »

It's Haden Hill House, which I think is in the park - doesn't help that their web site it down for the weekend... Someone is going to be standing by the house at 12.00 to look after lost sheep - e.g. me!

I think it was arranged via the West Midlands FB page.

Esme Moore · « **Reply #72 on:** April 12, 2014, 08:07:51 am »

Many thanks, Professor. Not being on FB I can only go by what I see posted here, hence my request for details. Well, I've a few things to do first, will see if I'm able to get there once I'm done. Have a good time, all, in case I don't see you there!

James Harrison · « **Reply #73 on:** April 12, 2014, 03:43:28 pm »

That was an outstanding little meetup/ punknic! Rather looking forward to Winterbourne in a few weeks.

Aubreay Fallowfield · « **Reply #74 on:** April 12, 2014, 04:00:36 pm »

I agree, nice to meet Prof Comberthwaite and the others. Esme you were missed
