Men of Kent.

[Mick Stockbridge]

ditto, though not strictly a 'man of kent' I have been there...

 

Fear not Rich, for a small fee (£50) I can arrange an honourary man of Kent day ticket. Seriously though, that,s five so far so I,ll give Bedgebury a call today to see if it can be done. Start thinking of a back up venue in case they say no.

I'm up for that. If bedgebury are a no go then I know of somewhere to go with lots of old trees in a open setting as well as woodland. Near Canterbury and a bloody good traditional pub nearby too. Kentish Yeomen welcome too!!!

Anyone is welcome mate, but tell me what is a Kentish Yeoman That,s a new one on me.

It's all to do with what side of the river (Medway) you are from.If you are from the south side eg canterbury area then you are a Man of Kent and from the north side ie tonbridge rochester etc then you are a Kentish Yeoman. Have you ever noticed pub names in these areas?? The North/South divide you might say:reddy:

 

When you thinking Mark?

I,ve just spoke to the curator at Bedgebury and have arranged to meet him on Thursday the 12th to discuss it. He said we could climb "The Old Man of Kent" no problem. We can talk about dates after Thursday, find out what suits everyone. Where are you based Dave ? Mick.

[Treeworld]

Nice one Mark! I'm down in Teynham. Keep us posted on this thread. Off out now, see you later.

BTW they have a go ape at Bedgebury which is a bloody good laugh. It's like an assault course but up in the trees.

Well that,s news to me. The river Medway runs north to south basically, anyone west of the Medway is a Kentish man and anyone east of the river is a man of Kent.

Depending on the date and if my back op is ok I'll come along to watch you guys and have a few drinks.
