Massive thanks to @Trikeman for organising this weekend and organising the fantastic weather. A black mark though for parking @Tootles next to us, the silly old trumpet bum put a bit of a downer on it but we got through unscathed and only a little traumatised

We arrived home after a mammoth 10 mile trip! Thanks to Kev @Trikeman for a brilliant weekend - not only his first meet as an organiser, but also his first meet with Fun! The man must be mad! He was very ably assisted by his lovely wife Mair (sorry if I've misspelt it), and we had the best time. Met up with the usual reprobates but also met some lovely new friends - I don't understand what you all say about @Tootles - a more quiet and unassuming man you could not wish to meet!

Sorry we didn't get to say goodbye @Debs and Les, but glad to have got you over the bridge and back again!

Oh and Joy @movan - I don't count you in amongst the reprobates - you are my singing partner and my little smiley mate!

The only person missing was Dawn @Mousy and Martin of course - we really did miss you Dawn, and I did leave a bit of gin for you, whatever @Taran_Las might say!

 

[Debs]

Just adding our thanks too.....sorry we didn't get to say goodbye to some of you @cliffandger @movan but @Popeye assured us you were still in bed after last nights soiree
@Trikeman well done Kev & Mrs Trikey, we really enjoyed the weekend and were sorry to have to cut it short.
We met some lovely people, thanks for making us feel welcome
Oh yes, can't forget @Tootles , he's so quiet you just forget about him don't you

.....and thanks to those of you who walked me over the bridge & Ger for talking non-stop on the return trip
And all the others, too many to mention

If we'd have thought more about it you could've taken your uke & sung

Methinks that may have dramatically raised the numbers of 'jumpers'! But the thought is appreciated!

Is it a bird ?? Is it a plane ?? NO It's a FUNSTER..

 

[Trikeman]

In the photo it looks like something has fallen off the plane, second look it looks like a bomb!

Great shot though.

Trikeman.

Is that you on there Tonka?

This, I believe is one of the planes from the weekend.
Used to be "Utterly butterly" and later re-branded.

@dippingatoe Yes... It's me but a few years ago and with some hair..

 

[Popeye]

Sorry we didn't meet up Tonka but I'd just like to share this thought with you. We spent quite a bit of time this week-end with @Taran_Las and if Phil is to be believed.....................

I can assure you it's a scratch on the photo (or dirt) before i scanned it..
No "bombs" dropped.

..........if he'd been up there several Bombs would have been dropped........

[Popeye]

Hey, what a great meet. First person I met was Chris who said he was the son of Terry, then I went looking for Kev but he was hiding. Then I met these two who ended up our neighbors for the duration and lovely neighbors they were too.

JudyKeith

The BBQ was a great success once I mastered my new BBQ and the singing and dancing displays by the usual culprits .... excellent.

Thank you Kev and Moira for all the work and worry, and thank you Howie and Kath for taking the shower queue micky-take so very well and thank you Phil ( @Taran_Las ) for helping me reduce weight for my homeward trip. Griff & Jackie.

We look forward to Malvern and Pembrey where many will be soon
