I’d like to add my thanks too – to Gubes for organising and welcoming us with open arms and tea at 7am, Shuts for being chauffeur, bbq maestro, fellow cider drinker and teaching me how to eat a kit kat chunky properly, Beads and Niall for being super organised and making sure there was tea, bacon and eggs for breakfast and everyone else for making me laugh so much!
My highlights:
Meeting lovely Richy (and hopefully not scaring him away!) and the two headed awesome machine that is Grender
Seeing everyone else again
Mansized karaoke
JT5 Jack Daniels ‘exploits’ (just don’t ask about the hoover)
Drinkies on the beach
Fish and chips at Rick Stein’s
The battle boat, despite claustrophobia and Ben “The worse driver ever” (a direct quote from ride operator) wailing “Puggy I don’t like it!”
So many different types of cider…
Being asked for ID when we purchased the aforementioned cider
Lowpoints:
Rain at Stonehenge
Camping hair
Grender not doing ‘I got you babe’ at Karaoke
Drunken fists of fury (sorry Dutch)
Going home :(
Yes it was a shame that it was so misty and gloomy when we got there :-/ And then we got chased off the site by that mysterious man with the flashlight, never got a chance to sacrifice the goat.
What I found wierd was that I felt as if I new the majority of people already and it didnt take me long to feel at all to feel at ease. There were only a few people who were a little different to what I perhaps expected;
Beads; almost just how I expected; kind and caring with a funny side.
JT5; not at all ghow I thought! was far more swarve and sophistocated! I expected a really ordinary jeans and white t-shirt kinda guy!
Ben; just how I thought; and an awesome accent too; reminded me of being t'up north
Pip; really easy going and funny guy, not quite as fat as he makes out, and not scary either! :-P
Chris; for some reason I expected not to get on with him very easily but he was a really really nice guy! (and a fashion icon! lol)
Nail; A really really down to earth guy, so easy to chat too; althought it took me till sunday to work out he was gay
Shuts; as I expected but more easy going. I thought he may be more strict with drinking etc being a PT.
PGE; lovely, looked younger and hotter than I expected too
Phoniex; so calm and gentle; yet on line he wants to eat me!
Grender; were both awesome but both quieter than I expoected; I thought they were going to be crazy 24/7!
Hope I havent forgotten anyone. Was I very different from what people thought?
Pug you lot didnt scare me off; I'll defo be at the next drinkies I can! even if it is down south! :-P Everyone made me feel really welcome so thanks guys!
I forgot to say thanks to people tho; so huge thanks to beads and nial for cooking glorious breakfasts! and letting me have seconds! :-D Those pancakes were lovely; dunno how you made them with the little fruity bits inside but they were gorgeous! Thanks to the drivers for shipping us around too, and to shuts for planning the tour to Padstow. I think I probably still owe someone money for food for breaky so remind me next time and I'll buy you a few drinkies.
