Default Re: lessons learned from AR08 - :D

Lessons from this year...

1. I am as old as I feel,
2. cripples can put up and take down their own tents (quite proud of that),
3. you can never have to many torches (gave away four)
4. even meeting people you've only seen at last years makes them feel like old friends,
5. not a chance of meeting all those I'd have liked to,
6. Jo ( Mrs Ape) was an angel and kept me in tea and bacon butties,
7. SV1000's make great gazbo anchors,
8. no one is awake after 3am
9. painful knees an camping aren't the best bedfellows

Cheers Mark.
