Oh yes, that was a great meet. I stayed nice and warm, with the exception of cold feet once we sat down for the evenings.
Nice to see some new faces and some old ones too ( sorry Crosslandkelly, you're an old face now just because you've come twice and brought food and beer to share. Not too mention all the fire wood you processed).
Not so sure I had the last laugh with the chute. Took me an hour and a half to hang out the bloody thing on my own in the work shop up the farm. Half the strings dropped out and bits of it are still only just above the ground. Still a bit open to the elements too, so will be some time before it dries, it was already freezing up by the time I finished hanging it. Good job the sheep don't come in to lamb for a few weeks yet as I'll have to move it.
But all said and done I really enjoyed myself.
FYI, this meet wasn't booked in with them and we were lucky to get on as another group had cancelled. I've not booked the next one as it would be half term for the last weekend and not sure if there would be more people the weekend before. As Widu said, I'm not around at all for feb, so if anyone is passing gatwick and going to that meet maybe they could pick it up? Give it a couple of weeks to dry first though.
Pics and blog to come, but Widu summed it up nicely.
