YH:

ARRIVAL TIME and CODE
- I have spoken to the YH manager and we can arrive at
the hostel from 2pm on Friday.
- There are no keys for the hostel, only a secret code
to get in the door - 7746. Make sure you note this
down as you'll need it to get in and out.
- We need to leave by 1pm on the sunday and the hostel
has to be cleaned before we leave!!

TRANSPORT
- The nearest train station is Penistone which is 3
miles from the hostel. From there,you can either take
a bus (No.23 or 24 - 1 every 2 hrs, drops you outside
the hostel, nr Wagon and Horses pub).Here is the
timetable:http://www.travelsouthyorkshire.com/NR/rdonlyres/46C804D6-03AD-4CEE-8C\
4A-ADC600B266B0/0/232424ABarnsleyValidFrom16thJuly2007.pdf
(and on pdf)
- or book a taxi via Mark at M.T. Tours (07789467212).
Best to do this in advance!
- I am speaking to Kat about arranging a taxi for the
6 present members going.

TOWELS/BEDDING
- Bedding is provided so no need for sleeping bags
- You DO have to provide your own towel though - don't
forget!!

ROOMS
- Present members are going in the 5-bed or the 6-bed
room depending on how many people come.
- Lisa, Carl and Emily need a 4-person room to
themselves
- Everyone else just decide on arrival

MEALS and BEER
- Kat and I thought that for the first night, it would
be good to make our own food to save cash, so I think
a veggie curry would be good - will provide list of
who brings what below. Everyone will need to
contribute some money (£5ish) to food.
- For the sat night, I've booked a massive table at
the Wagon and Horses pub opposite the hostel for
6.30pm dinner!
- Can people bring some beer/wine - there is also the
local pub!

FOOD TO BUY
- Jonny - could you get breakfast and lunch food if
possible? This would be for 25 people for 2 days:
Breakfast - eggs,bacon,sausages, cereal, milk, orange
juice, tea, coffee, bread, butter, jam
Lunch - cheese, meats, rolls, salad, orange squash

[If anyone can help Jonny and take on either lunch or
breakfast that would be great]

- Darren and Si - could you get food for dinner as you
are arriving early on the friday? This would be for
25 people: big bag of potatoes, big bag of carrots, 6
x courgettes, 6 x peppers, 2 x cauliflower, garlic,
massive bag(s) of basmati rice plus korma or masala
sauce (lots of jars) and anything else you think good
for a curry!!

- Me, Louisa, Hazel, Sarah - snacks for 25 people AND
and miscellaneous - crisps, cakes, choc, biscuits,
kitchen foil(let's text to arrange)

RUNNING
- I'll leave this to one of the expert map readers to
sort out - Jonny, Barny??? But would be good to do
one big run all together if poss and then people can
do their own smaller runs? There will be some maps
there but bring one if you have one of the area.

I think I have covered everything, (sorry for the
list-like format!) but let me know if I have put you
down for getting food and you can't or if you discover
you can help out with food/transporting of people from
train station?

See you Friday, I think I will arrive about 6pm,
coming on the train!

Oh and can anyone bring a CD player and CDs??? Or Ipod
with speakers???
