The father in law goes wild camping on such occasions and I was invited along, I wasn't sure if it would happen tbh as the weather was like it is usually in our area (cruddy). Enroute to the pick up point(car park) we had an encounter with a small lake blocking the road, I wish I was Moses, but a Fiat Qubo doing 60 and suddenly having to brake, (having come around a corner to be confronted with the sea not yet parted) did just as good a job 
irate: Unfortunately within a mile of that another car seems to have tried the same thing but ended up on its roof with x2 cop cars in attendance......
Twas a few days before a certain hijacked holiday/festival and all was dark, windy, rainy and up hill all the soddin way
so no pics before making camp. We were intending on a mostly enclosed sheep fold but we didn't have a 
so opted for the hotel next door .
A few mugs of booze later, with more wind rain and snow thrown in, we retired to the accomodation.
Having woken up with a sore head and not enough wood left for the hausages, we buggered off home in the wind, rain, and snow.
communal basha
hotel grey
sporting last seasons chest rig in a low slung style
all good fun.
anyone else do anything for the solstice?
