to go home to get his hat but left his bag at Mikes. Everyone knackered getting
bikes up the station steps. Train delayed by 25 mins. (BR - we're getting there

Arrived at the site
at 4.40. Set up tent ,had cup of tea. Went for a walk , found
the village idiot. Apparently, you're only allowed to go for a
walk on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday until 10 pm. - Silly eh!!
Went back to site, had pasta and meat for dinner - yummy, yummy
fill my tummy (Steve wrote this). Had a lie down, checked out
tent. Decided it was a 'USED BOG ROLL OF A TENT' and should have
brought a Force 10. |

Wandered to pub
(didn't get run down - surprise !). First ones in (at 7.30),
oops, drank halves (Martins idea to stay sober) Steve's lasted
nearly an hour! Some locals arrived and stared us out, beer mats
interesting: "Think before you drink before you
drive". Moved to pool room once those 'lovely girls'
(according to Steve) had finished playing. We played pool and
tried to play 'round the clock' at darts. Gave up. Left pub at
10.00. Almost got lost (& very wet) crossing the campsite
field. 'Used bog roll' absolutely soaked with dew already. |
