Hi - just wanted to say what a great weekend it was and to pass on my special thanks to CJ, Kat & Paul for looking after us so well. Thanks also to Si, Andy and others for all your advice and for holding my hand through the scary bits. As my little hairy fingers were clamped with white knuckles firmly onto the steering wheel I didn't take any pictures so would love to see some posted.

Cheers

I left out the one of me getting towed up the hill :oops:

You might need QuickTime installed to play them.

Heh, we're back at 11:11 Monday, just.
Thanks to CJ & Kat and Paul for organising this so well again, Simon for getting Donald Quack, Quack Dokka running again after a thorough drowning, and everyone else who was there.

Mine and Matt's tok a bit of body damage Sat morning (a bit meaning a good bit), Roger and Stefan seem to have got their steed's through without a serious scrape.

As for the Sat night Scuffle, maybe the less said about that the better, but we revisited the scene of the crime this morning and took some photos of the enormous pile of scrap metal that once were many motor vehicles. Crazy young farmers :shock:

Went up to Tarr steps for a cream tea, very nice too, and waded through 3 times just to check that a cork in the right place saves an engine full of water... and then the exhaust broke, but not badly enough to stop us getting home.

Jenny's got quite a few... a lot of undergrowth :) A few good vids though, at the swing-splosh pool.
