well given the weather we ended up doing very well last night, with a cracking firepit from colin keightley. a cany turn out with good crack with light wind and only a couple of showers all night. mind you through the night i didnt arf rain, however the spirits were not dampend with a nice bacon butty from wendy and a cup of tea. came home early as the rain was terantial and ended up with a nice walk with the dog in some sunny conditions.plenty of beer and cider left for another do and at £5.00 a night then a lot cheeper than driving home if we can mange to get it with some flying weather.

cheers gary

Yes big thanks to Paul & Kay for organising and Colin for the fire pit, nice one. We should do this more often, how much do we owe for the beer? I had a couple of pints out the keg but I had to leave early on Sunday.
