I have heard back from the Rucksac Club and we cant have more places because they have booked another group in with us. They are expecting our extra people to camp or use campervans. Sorry but this is the downside of trying to avoid making a loss.
So we have Alison (meet leader) Darryl, Chris, Chloe, Jeff and George Donovan, Robert, Susan, Adrian. Total 9 in the hut plus Alex n Mark, Les n Dell, Barbara, John and Fiza in campervans. Total 16. That will be fun at mealtimes!
