2011 RAUK members field trip?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi all,
       After the success of the trip a couple of years back, I'm just wondering if anyone is interested in doing a RAUK members field trip?  No firms dates as of yet but I was thinking of a Saturday either next month or May.

A couple of options for sites:
Either visit 1 or 2 sites in Surrey.

Or, go somewhere in Dorset, maybe starting off at Boscombe to have a look for the Wall and Green Lizards then continuing on to a heath somewhere.   Another idea would be a whole on Purbeck looking at 1 or 2 sites there.

Any comments, suggestions or interest in doing something like this?

Mark

	I would be up for a trip to Surrey again, we know how good Steve is at organising these things How about some smooth snakes this time, I just never get to see them and would really love to. Why not go for a Dorset one too this year, bit far for me but I'm sure others could do it?

	Hi Gemma, That is another idea too, a Dorset as well as a Surrey one either is fine for me as I'm slap bang in the middle of those 2 counties. Hopefully a few more will be interested in something.

	James, does that mean you'd be up for a trip to Wales or Surrey/Dorset? I'd be up for either but most likely Wales as it's nearer. Cheers

	Wales is a little too far........It'd be not worth it, as by the time I got there, I'd have to come home again, LOL. I could, however, get a flight from Eastleigh to Chester and be picked up?
