Additional notes:
So once again we are up on Barr Beacon, the only difference is we will be celebrating our Wedding Anniversary. Got married on the 28th September 2019. So why not spend some time with some good friends.
We will be there for 10am If you get there any earlier we always park in front of the blue binoculars (unless some dog walker has jumped in our space). Please note on the map where we are as we are in the north car park. If the gate you are about to enter is directly at a road junction then this is the wrong gate. With the road and entrance on your right continue to drive till you see the traffic lights ahead of you. It is the gates on your right before the traffic lights. There is a height restriction of 2.67m / 8.9ft use the left lane to avoid tyre damage as there are two lanes, one in and one out and if the road bends to the left then that is the correct one. This is a great location for people who have any mobility issues as you can fly from your car and should it rain then you can sit in your car until it stops. There are no toilets on site but there is a pub (The Foley Arms) a short drive. There is also an Asda that is also a short drive with toilets and a pub called the Cat And Fiddle close by. It is a nice open space high up. Great views.
Please also note that during this meet we will once again be monitoring this thread so if you can not find us, send a message to us here and we will reply. If you are over the other side we will have a fly over and see where you are.
If you have a remote control car, bring it along as it is also a great place to drive one, I am hoping to have my car fixed by then, let's say it has a slight suspension problem.
There are a few people who wonder why we do not choose the monument side. Take a drive up there and have a look at the sort of people who tend to go there and you will see why. The one we go to is a dead end so not a run for boy racers to test out their cars with. This is a meet where there is space to fly but you are looking at trees and some more trees etc. Have a look at peoples videos (do not look at d0c.col as I am sure he is going to use A I to make it look like I am fishing a drone out of a bin because of some bad flying… I mean me??? really…
Hope to see you there to have some flying and to join us to celebrate our wedding anniversary when we said that words "if we must", I mean "I do".
Thanks to the support for people coming to our meets. It is great when we see each car turn up. Do not forget to come and see me (somewhere by the orange car) so we can check you in. If we have printed a card for you please bring it. If we have not then come and ask us for one to be printed.
Tagging regional group @group-westmidlands to let you all know 
Hope to see you there!
