How long would you need people for?

[erestania]

All day really. We need people to help set up the camp (ie pitch the main tent and then jury-rigg a load of tent pieces in the woods to make it look like there is a tent city stretching into the woods.

We would be done by around 5pm-ish I reckon.

Oh and as I mention above, the date has changed by one day. Correct date is THURSDAY the 22nd of OCTOBER.

Ah well, that tears it. I have the Wednesday off as I am flying to france in the evening, I could have helped out in the morning, but on Thursday I will be in France.

Hallo. redhillian pointed me over here!

I live rather close to Wellingborough (about half an hour away, in Oundle, in fact) and at the moment am available on that day and see no reason why I wouldn't be (job-hunting issues aside). I'm not much use at putting tents up or running / moving quickly, but I am a first aider, if that helps?

:)

Hey Freddie!

Wow, I didn't realise you lived quite so close. If you are up for it, we'd love to have you along. Can you send me an email to sarah at erestaniasgarden dot co dot uk and I can get you a brief, etc about the day.

I can volunteer for this. Am quite good with tents now! *grin*

[erestania]

That would be so very, very cool hon.

I'll send you an email and we can chat more about this. Hugs!
