A great weekend hosted by a few great blokes for the other great blokes in the club. Many thanks to all.
Next time, can we get Pete Low to put in a request for better weather to the higher authority.
I felt a bit 'off footed' by arriving so late by which time everyones name badges had disappeared so have still come away thinking...? uh

Grounhog got me back to Bournemouth without a hiccup :P

Just another note of thanks for the catering & general hospitality offered by everyone to me during the weekend!
It was good to put faces to names & I feel we all made the best of the dire weather.
Hope to be part of next year at the new location, with about 27 degrees & constant sunshine.
Hope everyone got home ok.
Thanks again.
Nick

It's all been said before but I'll say it again...
Mel did some cracking ebay raiding beforehand to get us the tea urn and stove then organised some great food expertly prepared by Chris. Thanks to Franc for his shanty town components and as ever, Gary for the 12x12. It would be a fraction of the social event if everyone was hiding from the weather in their respective tents. Thanks to Simon and the admin team for organising our attendance. I know it's not an easy job getting it all together and these guys have had a lot on their plates recently.
Crucially, thanks to everyone for braving the weather and making the effort to attend, great to see the usual suspects, great to meet new people.

Huge thanks to everyone involved, especially the catering heros and Nick, Paul and Murdock for putting up with my slow riding on the way over.
Great to put names to faces and wonderful to confirm that it's as friendly a bunch in the flesh as on the forum.
As sods law would have it I rode 150 miles home in horrendous winds and pouring rain and it's now dry, still and a bit cloudy here. If the same's true of the rest of the country then if we hadn't all have set off early we'd have been fine!
Hope everyone made it home OK and thanks again for a great weekend.

Well that was the worst weather and probably the worst site arrangements we've seen BUT still a superb weekend!

Thanks to everyone for being such great eggs, so many people stuffed into a 12x12 last night - amazing what 3 gallons of Grog will do :D

I said my thanks before but to reiterate it to Chris, Mel, Eric and others....another superb event.
