Well, home safe and sound Fosters in hand
Good run back though attrocious weather but still got home for five thirty after dumping tin tent and doing the shopping..
BIG thanks to Twister,Dan,Adz and all others who helped setting this up for a cracking weekend. And of course all who attended Thats what makes it
Total round trip for me, including the laning , was about 670 miles.....Well worth it.
Brilliant to see faces old and new and just catch up with people face to face.
I was really pleased to give some of the lads a chance to practice their recovery techniques Thanks people
Once again a blinding weekend
Many Thanks _________________ Khotso........... |

First up, considering a couple of months ago I really thought this years BB wasn't going to happen coz everyone was skint, what an absolutely cracking weekend it turned out to be. So good to catch up with you all, I just wish the weekend could have been longer.
I really would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who came along, especially those who travelled half the length of the country to get to it . I know it needs to be organised and everything, but as Ted said, at the end of the day it's you bunch of die hard BB'ers that make it what it is every year, and without you lot it just wouldn't happen.
There are a few people I'd like to say a special thanks to for their help in pulling this years BB together, and I know their names have already been mentioned, but I personally would like to say thank you....
Jase and Adz for helping me eventually find the right campsite, running around the countryside, and putting up with the endless phone calls ; TrooperDan for the hours spent sorting out the lanes, organising the groups, and making sure there was enough to keep us all happy (and supplying a live on lane parts service ) ; Josh for his ingenuity in making what is now going to be the official club BBQ (top job mate ), and delivering it to site, and last but not least Cathy, Emma, and Sam for doing a belting job of the Saturday night BBQ. Chefs outfits are already on order for next year girls .
I'd also like you all to know that having spoken to Clair and her husband (the owners) on my way out, they told me that as a club we are more than welcome to go back there whenever we want, another reason for me to say thanks to you all, you've done the club proud.
Apparently we've got 100's of pics and a few good videos, but they're on about 5 different devices, so it's going to take me a while to get them all sorted, but I'll get on it tomorrow.
Right now need sleep _________________

Well said Steve, nicely put.
I remember the stress levels earlier in the year, will it happen, wont it etc, but with strong people and great members, with great support from everyone mentioned by Steve it really was a great weekend.
A credit to everyone for the positive comments from Clair, which shows we can behave ourselves too.
Roll on the next one!! _________________
