Once again- we are expecting the Pelican Inn to host its annual Bonfire Night event on Muir beach. I'm waiting to them to officially post it on their website so will update you all when it's confirmed

Start time: The guy is normally placed on the bonfire at 7pm so the fire should be lit around 6.15-30ish.

Finding the group: As with previous years' events, the darkness makes it incredibly hard to find each other so don’t definitely plan on finding the group (there's often around 200 people or more there) but I will be carrying a torch ("flashlight") and probably wearing a scarf too (good luck!) and there is NO MOBILE SIGNAL on the beach (at least not with AT&T). Those who went to the pub after previous events know how crampted it can be after the bonfire and how long you can wait to be served so, if that's not your thing, just bring some beers (or mulled wine etc) and chill around the fire for a while (that's my plan)

Parking: Park in the Muir Beach car park and walk the 2 minutes to the pub (the pub car-park fills up VERY fast!)

To bring: A torch, warm clothing and drinks if you are just chilling by the fire

Carpooling: If you are interested in carpooling, let me know and i'll try to connect you all.
Hope to see you there!

PS This is a very child-friendly event!

    Rob, can you ask around and see who is willing to give a ride up to this event, because I just can't make it on the bike, Thanks! Paul

    I emailed the Pelican. They said the bonfire will go on until 10pm or so. Me and Jen will aim to be there 8 til 8:30 or so. We'll be bringing Leela ( http://photos1.meetupstatic... ) who is pretty recognizable as she only has one eye!

    What a drag to miss this outing. I am co-hosting an important awards ceremony that night. Have a wonderful time!
