Well the weather was kind to us, only one very brief shower and no-one ran to the safety of their vans It was so good to see so many people, especially those who had travelled some distance to get there and it's such a busy time of the year, all we can say is a big thank you It got us in the Christmas mood (thanks Rickyrooo for the tinsel for the front of Wilma) Wilma's last hoorah before botox, tummy tuck and an arse lift = she's 40 next year don'tcha know? This sign didn't fill us with confidence - bbq in the woods ;D Lord Congi (Nuffink) Mork68 & Lowie (Clowie) Mrs Harryankle (thanks for coming to our rescue with the skewers and the best hot chocolate for the kids) Mrs Clowie and Poppy eating her Christmas on a stick Mrsmac and maclette, Mrs Scooper in the background A big thank you to chilicamper, it looks lovely on Wilma Dogs had a good time too, A visit from Santa Paws for Millie (Rickyrooo's lovely princess) The mad Wellington, Dogs'n'Dubs bouncy puppy One of yorkshire campers & paley's huggable bears (sorry don't know which one) One of the best things about the day was everyone brought things to share and there was sooooo much food it felt just like Christmas day, at the end people were forcing chocolates, biscuits, mince pies and cake on everyone and all you could hear was, 'I can't I'm stuffed ... oooh they look nice, I'll just ...' As the chestnuts went on the fire, the music gently waltzed into 'Chestnuts roasting on an open fire ...' a touch of genius by Markyman!
As people trundled off, the brave got ready for a nights camping The camp site had grouped us all together on hard standing - thanks to Rickyroo and after some 'inventive' electric hook up arrangements we had power. Ricky tlb's official fire starter got the best hottest fire going and we were toasty all night!!! just look at the glow!!! we all came away with a tan! Paley pondering badgers Lord Nuffink fed everyone with Nana's Potato Hash and beetroot - recipe please! It was a great night with lots of useless chat, lots of good drink and great company - thanks Lord Congi Markeyman, Doodlebug, Ricky and Paley sad to be going, bye bye Millie Tara a bit Loretta When Santa got stuck in the Puca ... All dressed up and ready to go home
