taxman   12 #97 Posted August 25, 2008 Really, I find this hard to believe when some of the campers at this weekends meet mentioned it would be best to have a "outdoor pursuits" group.  **wonders who these campers are who didn`t want this group** :suspect:  To be honest this whole debate is piddling me off. It was mooted at one point that a joint camping and walking group could exist. This was discussed amongst both walkers and campers and the prevailing viewpoint seemed to be that keeping them separate would be better. Since then various campers (along with walkers) have pressed for a camping group to be set up. That it hasn't been is nothing to do with the walking group. You've already been told by Medusa above who you should be contacting about this.  As far as I remember there has been no great clamour for an "outdoor pursuits" group. If you want a camping group (as many of the walkers do as well) then campaign for one, don't suggest a successful and popular group (the walkers) be subsumed into a outdoor pursuits group Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

scoobz   10 #103 Posted August 31, 2008 Fine. No offence taken then. Glad to hear that the powers that be are paying attention to your forum suggestion thread by the way. There are so many people interested in contributing to a Camping Section, it could easily stand on its own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
