Hi guys,
I’m interested in the expedition but unfortunately can’t make it tomorrow. Hopefully will be able to catchup in the near future. Thanks Nathan

Hi
I have apologies from Andrew M but there are enough to still meet. Antoine has placed some great ideas on detailed location on Loomio plus an exped report that we will plagiarise for objectives in the Kuiluu valley. It looks superb. I have put up an exemplar 2 week programme (from 2016) although we aim for up to 3 weeks as Kuiluu is a bit further in-country which gives some ideas on cost etc. If you are interested in the exped I need your email address to add you to the loomio thread. Tonight we will go over the country, region and objective area and start discussing costs, contribution and banking. Cheers JJM
