Star date Sunday 22:30 hrs"...

base camp is now base pond. The rain, lightening, hail, more rain, might even need four wheel drive in the morning.

Great weekend folks, thanks to all of you, it was really ream!

All home safe and sound, just eaten the last of the cheesecake, yum yum!!!!

Absolutely brilliant weekend, we are so glad we came and joined in with the laughs and fun.
Thanks to all who made it a weekend to remember, thank you Mr and Mrs NSN for the meat and BBQing. Thanks Neil for organising and the great day at the beech today.

We look forward to doing it all again next year. :thumbright: :thumbright:

What's the rising damp situation like this morning Nick?
Glad that I left when I did know or it would have been swimming lessons... :shock:

Sounds like you all had a good time - next year, can it be arranged so it doesn't clash with our main holiday :thumbright:

Bright blue sky and sun shine, what a change from last night!
The ground is sodden, like walking on a sponge.
The water wash coming up through the floor in Neil & Sara's awning last night.
Reggie, you would have floated away, I am sure!

Bacon roll then pack up and home.
Can I sign up for 2012 now?

I can't believe you had bad weather! I drove home in gorgeous sunshine and it stayed like that until the sun went to bed. I don't know what the weather was like after about 10pm as I was shattered and sound asleep.

Stunning sunshine and blue skies this morning as well.

We'd be up for it again next year, although I think we'd try and squeeze an extra day in. Mark, the dates are what they are as they tie in with the Swanage carnival / regatta , so if you want to come don't book your hols when the regatta is on! It would be good to see some more people there.

Frodo Loves Everybody, unless I am not around then all he does is the Noise of "LEAVE ME ALONE". Glad to have met you again sir.
