The weekend
started early for Steve Eddie Trevor and I as we set off bright
and early. After finding our spot and putting the shutters up,
off we went for a leisurely stroll around the Garden Centre and
finished off in the Coffee shop, mm lovely!
|
|
| As
everyone started to arrive we got together for an evening meal
at the local Carvery and that was excellent.
|
|
|
Saturday started
at a slow pace as we weren’t due on the site till 11.30
so silliness crept in.
|
|
Well
as per usual the Romiley lads were eager to get started followed
by our more mature lads at their own pace. Trevor and I drove
round for ages without seeing any one and just as we were going
to go back we spotted our lads playing follow my leader. They
had found this steep hill with a twist in it and were merrily
towing each other up. I’m not sure how the first vehicle
got there though to help out! During following each other round
as you can see, Dave didn’t quite get the right line and
somehow ended up doing a duck dive into a ditch.

With Goddard
in the lead on the drop below, this was the start of some of
the lads with the Macho image trying to do better. No one made
it across the muck and slutch, everyone had to be towed out but
they had good fun doing it.

By the end
of the day the child in some of your Committee members decided
to come out and have a B*?!dy good time!
This time the paddling pools had a wet run!

By the evening
everyone had had a good day and we went onto have a barbecue
then lit a big bonfire where everyone brought there chairs and
sat round to while the night away.

Sunday was
in the same vein with muck, mud and water with all the folks enjoying
themselves until a rather nasty accident occurred of a Land Rover
sliding and turning over but with quick thinking a more major accident
was prevented.

Everyone conformed
to the rules and left the site on time; also it was left very clean
as a quick check before we left confirmed that. Thanks go to everyone
who came and supported the event and we hope that you all enjoyed
your weekend.
