To the parents of the young adults at the Meet, their behaviour was impeccable and it was a pleasure for me to be retaught how to have fun again.

Many thanks to all that attended, young and old.

Where's me sippy cup and blankey?

Thanks again for another great meet. Noah had a ball and it was great to see him running around with the other kids. The older ones did a great job of looking after him and getting him involved.

Must say the 10pm raid and the 4am wake up call was a new one for me :)

Looks like everyone had a great time, mine was spent in A and E Stoke Mandeville. I will get back to the woods if it kills me.

Thanks for organizing. :)

It was a great Saturday with great company. Seeing the kids having so much fun with sticks and burning stuff leaves me hopeful for future generations.

The 4.15 cattle race woke me up sharpish, went straight through my pitch, so lucky I swapped trees or I'd have set a 30ft amsteel cow garrotter straight across their path and probably flung out at high speed. They ran down either side. :)
