Help!! Nice person with land needed urgently (pref in an area reachable by the majority of people ie.not too far north or south. and it would be nice if not too far from manchester!!).
Dear people
People from Manchester Social Forum are planning a meet-up with other social forums and interested people in a camping weekend, provisional dates 21/22nd of May 2004. The idea is get together informally, share experiences, meet nice people, eat good food and see what develops. We plan to have space for music/art/discussion etc and hopefully independent media also as there is a possiblity Indymedia might decide to be involved. We had a campsite in Edale, Derbyshire in mind but have been told we can't have it now. Please see below, and if you can help in any way, please contact the manchester social forum email address at the bottom of the email.
Thank you.

We've been told we cannot have the Edale campsite we planned too because we might commit terrible anti-social acts like talking and staying up late... so we have a problem in that other campsites might not like us either.
there are a few possibilities people have come up with, and some problems with them
1. keep looking for campsites and getting rejected :-(
so does anyone know any nice people out there. if you do please, please ask.
2. ask nine ladies if we can camp on the bottom site. but people are worried about sheer rock drops and small children. also there aren't toilets or showers so that would put some people off coming and we want to include people not exclude them. also nine ladies people might not want us. it would be bringing a lot of strangers onto the site at one time, many that we don't know either, so for lots of reasons i don't think we should ask.
3. just go to a field and squat it. but again same problems with facilities as 9L, also trouble from farmers, police etc which people don't need.
so it looks like option 1 unless anyone else has any ideas? please network this around because we really, really want to do this. if anyone has any ideas/contacts/rich landed gentry friends/convivial members of the countryside alliance (!), etc
please email
mancsocialforum@riseup.net
