A truely suprising event! The weather reports suggested rain, rain, snow and more rain! Driving down to the park in driving rain on friday night suggested it would be one of those events. I didnt even bother to set up my tent. Less stuff to get soaked through.
Imagine my suprise when I wake up to glorious sunshine! Warm and sunny all weekend! Phew…
Lovely weather was the least of my worries however, as shortly I would be facing ‘fasands of billmen with only one cannon and a rusty sword, a charging horse or two, a suspiciously papiermachery dragon (at least until St George’s horse trod on it and all the bits fell off), a fistfight over who won a different and worst of all, cooking for other people!
Luckily we managed to survive the pottage of diverse meats, the pie of uncertain quantity and the specialy German sausage and lived happily ever after. At least until the heavens opened 10 minutes before pack down.
Typical…
