Wee Mac 2023 SIGN UP 28th April-> 1st May 2023 Selkirk (Rideout over TWO days - THREE night stay)

Hi All

In a bizarre moment of organisation I've booked Broadmeadows House in Yarrrowford just outside Selkirk again.
Wee Mac 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 & 2019 were brilliant and the digs were great value, stunning and gave us a great base.
2020 - was postponed due the Covid-19 pandemic.
2021 - was postponed due the Covid-19 pandemic.
2022 - we were back baby yeah!

CHECK IT OUT - HERE https://www.broadmeadowshouse.com

Selkirk, Galashiels, Peebles aren't too far away if you want to book your own accommodation - most of dad's army have stayed near here every year.

In April 2012 most of us stayed in Broadmeadows and a few stayed at the other local accommodation which was just down the road.
If there is over-spill from Broadmeadows then we can certainly look to use this again.

In April 2013 most of us stayed in Broadmeadows and a few stayed at other accommodation in Selkirk.

Some rooms are doubles only, some are SuperKing with the option to split into singles (twin room) and some are dedicated twin rooms so the singles will need to share.


So what do I need to know - I NEED people to commit on this page to get your name on the priority list if you want to stay at Broadmeadows.  The first 18 and possibly up to 22 will (unless I hear otherwise) have their space guaranteed when they pay their initial £20 deposit to hold the accommodation. Everyone else will be on the reserve list for Broadmeadows in the order they signed up.

To reserve your space - £40 deposit asap
By end of 3rd March 2023 - a further £120

Total = £160 (note this doesn't account for the full food and drinks bill which I expect to be around another £30 - £40 or so)



We've had drop-outs every year so those places will be filled in order of the sign-up list.
If we fill the space then deposits will be returned.

Costs - I've worked out approximate costs as follows

Big Hoose (3 night stay) will be a cost of approx £190-£200  we NEED to fill this  (10 spaces)
Rest of Broadmeadows (3 night stay) will be a cost of approx £190-£200 (4 + 4 + 2 = 10 spaces)
There are two additional beds that they can supply for our use and this will be same cost. I've been in them twice and they are well comfy.

At the moment we've only booked 10 spaces but can hopefully book more if required.

This cost will pay for your accommodation and supplies for breakfast.
We then buy supplies for evening meals and drinks add on any shortfall or subtract any overpayment and then split this between everyone.

Cost vary depending on the food, drinks and entertainment bill and in line with increased prices we expect the total bill to be approx £190-£200 mark for 3 nights dinner, bed and breakfast.

It really is a 5 star stay for a 3 star cost

I NEED people on the list to confirm and pay a initial deposit £40 PP asap so I'll be looking for people to get their deposits to me asap to REALLY book your place.
You can't please all the people all the time but we'll do our best.

If you have to cancel you will only lose your deposit if we can't find a replacement.
If lots of people cancel then we've got a problem that will have to be shared - but hopefully that won't happen.

Rooms are mainly twins with a few doubles and potentially a couple of fold downs.....I'll take one of them if required.

The RIDEOUT is TWO days with one on Saturday 29th April and one on Sunday 30th April 2023.

Please note that folks who wish to attend the event are welcome to organise their own accommodation as you don't need to stay in Broadmeadows.

Will also be looking for volunteer chefs, assistant chefs nearer the time.  Everyone needs to muck in though please.
