A couple of things for those that have never been to Milehouse before…
The alpine platforms have mattresses and pillows, so no need to take karrimats or thermarests.
There should be fuel there for the stove, so no need to take coal.
As I won’t be coming up until Saturday evening I will leave it up to you guys to organise transport arrangements for yourselves, but there does seem to be quite a few non-drivers in the list. Maybe someone could volunteer to be point man for organising this. I will also pass the key to someone in the pub on Thursday.
Looks like the final list of folk attending this weekend are as follows
Amy
Andy
Alex
Fiona
David
Jen
Dom
Gordon
Alistair
Kev
Adam (Sat only)
Me (Sat only)
Gavin (possibly)
Also, on the past couple of meets I taken along a spare axe for Amy. This saves her dragging one up all the way from London. As I will not be arriving until Saturday is there someone who is going up on Friday who can lend her one to ensure that she is properly equipped for Saturday.

Does anyone have a SPARE helmet they can lend to Kev. I only have one, and if I want to use it for scrambling (or suchlike), then I'll need it. If you have a spare can you let me know, or bring it to the pub.
I may not be at the pub tomorrow but I will be taking a car up on Friday, so if anyone wants a lift just give me a call. Fiona is now coming up on Sat so I have space for a couple of bodies.
Who will be first to arrive? I'm wanting to be away by 5.00pm and if it looks like I'll be there first I can call into the pub briefly to pick up the key.

Just had a phone call from Sarah, the custodian for Milehouse, to warn us that they have had some building work going on. Apparently the front porch and drying room collapsed The work should be finished for the weekend, although the wiring to the drying room may not be finished. So it might be that we can hang gear up but not have any heat to dry it. I'm sure we'll survive
All things working out I would rather leave before the rush hour.....leaving mid afternoon sometime.Will be taking the van so room for one only,usually Andy `cos he`s always ready first.
Will try and finalise things in the pub tomorrow.

porch? Milehouse! I thought you were going to Raeburn at Dalwhinnie! just as well it collapsed! If I turn up it won't be 'til Saturday night - heading for northern corries on the way over
Guys, Unfortunately, I can't get my car this weekend (Ruth is working Sat and Sunday). This could leave us in a slight predicament? I will be down the pub tonight - probably about 10pm. Hopefully we can sort something out?
