Hmm at £3 each building a castle is going to be pricey

but yeah I think we should get some, handy for seats etc.

#23

We should decide where to place our village

@hannahintech here’s village talk

As Kyle says we should stake out a claim for our village!

EDIT: this doesn’t mean much in practice as the only way of reserving a space was by booking a tent…which it’s too late to do

Worth looking at the map anyhow, and doesn’t hurt to choose a dream spot

#25

Did no one book a tent then? Would a village involve coordinating tent spots to camp together? Or just to have a ‘main tent’?

We will have a tent of sorts from Tom Newsom

#27

I can spare a pair of underpants if it helps the tent situation?

Yes having an area we camp around

We’ll borrow the gazebo off @tomnewsom, and I can also get hold of one

Previously the gazebo worked well as a hub

But we’ll also need some workshop area due to my proposal for ‘an emergent interactive solar powered sculpture’ being accepted…more on that later

Ooh a marquee!

Okay great, I was looking to secure a spot, do you want to do that @Dermot? I was having some difficulty when I tried so I emailed them and will probably hear back at some point. The URL with instructions is here: https://wiki.emfcamp.org/wiki/Villages

#31

I tried quickly and had the wrong login details…will get to it later

#32

Okay!! Also, we totally need a bunch of hay bales :smiley:

@emuboy, we should get at least two!

(since we don’t have camping chairs… Although let’s hope it doesn’t rain :sweat_smile:)

#33

We got foldable chairs , orange , 4 of them.

#34

I got two hay bales @emuboy :wink: :kissing_heart: , we can take the chairs too, but hay bales will be fun :slight_smile:

Does anyone have strong opinions on the village location…? I’m quite liking the look of “camping F” as it’s right near the middle.

#36

So…

10 bales? £30

I’ll bung in £10

#37

do it!

#38

I’ve booked and paid for 7 bales, totalling £21…

Felt like reasonable number of bales and wasn’t too much financial exposure
