Morning Jacob,

Would love to join for this one. Unfortunately lacking a helmet and a good lamp, so would need to borrow a set if that's okay.

Looking forward to it!

That's not even the most we've had on a Belgrave trip. I remember having about that many in the back of your van for the drive up.

What time did you make it to the Druid?  I ended up in the Blue Bell as I couldn't be arsed traipsing two miles through muddy fields in the dark!
