I love camping I do!!!
Well, we're back, slightly soggy and knackered but it was well worth it. Conniston was lovely, and the camp site was just right. Had ourselves a nice little set up, very glad we took the Gazbo though, as the nights would have been very wet without it. Highlights were:
The bike ride / walk up the steep bits to the 'Cathedral', and then the free wheel back down.
Been duped in to getting up at 6.30 the first morning, but then having bacon butties with beans under the gazbo in the rain.
Opening my presents form Mr. Fesk by the lake at 7.30 in the morning in the sunshine.
One of the best birthday's ever - thanks a lot guys.
Tea and cake on my birthday after the boat ride.
Pissing in the open air after drinking too much alcohol to make it to the toilet block - strangely liberating.
The fact that it mainly rained - a lot! in the evening, and was quite pleasant in the day.
Biking back from the pub a bit pissed over fields in the pitch black with only 2 sets of bike lights between 6 of us!!!
The crusader.
A hot shower after wearing the same clothes for 36 hours and getting wet and dirty a lot - loved it!!!
Having to move all our things at 4am in the morning after there had been torrential rain for 8 hours that was just finally too much for Mr. Fesks tent - thank God for the mansion type tent that T & S had brought.
All in all had a fantastic time - hopefully next time - yes there will be one!! I will be a bit fitter and there will be more walking involved.
Photos to follow shortly.
