I put my tent up next to you, figured out who you were, then kind of smiled to introduce myself but you just looked incredibly hard so I backed off! Sorry, I will say hi next time

Oh what happened? I saw Fizz's photos but obviously not the end? Did she hit the brakes? can't imagine she could stop suddenly in that wet field? Or did she just carry on non stop all the way home ?

Same here. I tried to catch up with the people I didn't know, but spent so much time catching up with the people I do know, I ran out of time to meet everyone

It was more the antics of Stretchie trying to get on in the first place that was the most funny bit.

Oh and Stretchie, thanks for the assistance but I think it was definitely a case of "we need a bigger car".

That was brilliant, I was up in the car park talking to one of the old boys with the radio controlled boats...

Him: "Hmm, there's someone on the roof of that car. That's not very clever"
Me: "Don't know who that could be"
Him: "Oh no, it's OK, he's fallen off now"

As long as its ok that he's fallen off, never mind if he hurt himself or anything, the main thing is, he fell off and is no longer on the car
