Following the successes of various mapping parties and the infamous Isle of Wight (FIXME link to more fun IoW stuff) weekend in 2006, User:Steve has booked a beautiful Grade II listed 14 person cottage in Wales for a weekend of maps and mapping in September 2008.

There is an awesome pub near by. The venue will serve as a jumping off point to map any area of wales you like. Please bring stuff (bread, butter, bikes, beer, GPS units - see below) and share transport where you can (see below). Nearer the time we will set out a plan of activities but it will likely involve a group meal at a local restaurant on the saturday night and the usual map party pubbing etc.

Just the facts, ma'aam

  • When: Friday 12th to Monday 15th September 2008 (3 nights).
  • Where: New Radnor, Wales. map

Bedroom reservations

The cottage sleeps 14. Two double bedrooms, 4 twin rooms. Two of the twin rooms have additional beds (from pictures they are not fold-out, but proper beds). Use the following tables to reserve a bed. Contact User:Steve to send payment, which is £55 per bed (double counts as two beds) for the whole weekend. You need to pay when you reserve as I've paid the full amount already. It is non-refundable unless you can find someone to take your place and pay you. Please make sure you put contact details on your user page, if I can't contact you for payment (or you don't contact me) I'll have to remove you.

Just a day or two?

  • Richard can't make Friday/Saturday evenings, but would like to be there Sunday evening - anyone in the opposite situation?

Waiting list

If there are more people wanting to come, we'll get another cottage nearby. Please add yourself below.

  • Ben - Kinda long time away, but I'll be up for this. Is camping an option?
  • Higgy - Probably. Doesn't mind camping but would like a lift from Knighton station...

Transport

FIXME put stuff about regional airports / trains

Rideshare

User:Steve will probably be driving from near London Gatwick Airport on the Friday. I will probably be able to take two people, and will pass Oxford and London Heathrow also enroute.

AndyS is driving up from Southampton with Nick W.

TomH will probably be driving from Hertfordshire (with steve8 possibly car-sharing).

Blackadder will be driving from Birmingham and will have room for at least 1, possibly 2 persons.

  • Room for 1, hmm...quickest way there from mine is via yours. Ben
