Post by Welung666 »

Hi Folks, thought I'd post a few pics of the website crews cars now I'm back home and not so windswept!

And here we all are raising a glass to them both.

Still there Bill. I can email them over if you still can't see them.

Better than Saturday yes but windy as ###! Nearly every gazebo on Branch Avenue was destroyed overnight.

Just got home. It rained most of saturday and today was really windy - the website gazebo took to the skies, along with several others :o

Great to see so many website members attending - must have been at least 30. Saturday night was spent trying to see how many we could squeeze into Roger Rust's trailer tent - we managed to fit in 12 but it was a bit cosy.

Managed to avoid the clowns but got a glimpse of some dogs wearing bandanas whilst jumping through firey hoops :-?

Now trying to sort out a severe case of 'rally hair' :lol:

Glad you got home safe Lou. Ha ha....'rally hair' :lol:

Anyone on here manage to photograph the 'flying gazebos' ? Apparently lots of people were 'filming' them making bid for freedom. Someone told me it looked like someone had released a lot of balloons.

Please note that the 'squeeze' in Roger's trailor tent was a totally respectable event. :)

Just look at Cam's smile! Many congratulations to you both.

And, if anyone out there is nervous about attending such an event [as I was] please be assured there are some superb folk in this club! I am reeling at what an amazing time I had. And I nearly didn't go, for fear of large crowds.

THANK YOU to all those of you who made it so special for me.

They are hosted on Geocities, which has a tiny bandwidth limit. :-?

I have lots of photos but probably won't get around to putting them up tonight.

Looks like the storms they had here out in the sticks have affected the internet access.......

You replied before I had notification I'd posted!

Missed you Bill!

And I can take 'told you so' from you :wink:

Whatever gave you that idea? :lol:

He was last seen as 4th crew member in an all lady raft team during the inter branch challenge so you may be right :wink:

Nice to see some of you today :)

Amazing number of cars and the kids were changing their idea of the bestest one every 30 seconds.

Little Miss Paulk did eventually fix onto the Pink one just down from the website spot. Apparently I now have to get her one of those :roll:
