Hill of Oaks 2011 - Fri 6th/Sat 7th May

Thanks to Di for another great weekend by the side of Windermere. Sadly we were a little unlucky with the weather this time but that didn’t stop any of the fun in the water. Hannah spent most of Saturday in the lake and only reluctantly emerged for food. The boat race was a brilliant idea and side-splittingly funny to watch. Some pics from us....


Getting in some free practice for the big boat race


Hmmm, getting in isn’t exactly straightforward


“The dingy must be a 1 man one, the cheapest and smallest they make.” No danger of failing scrutineering then


This isn’t easy


Muzette’s doesn’t look much better


“Abandon ship, abandon ship!!”


Aha, getting the hang of this now

“You WILL learn to swim!!”










Double trouble – a pair of Hannahs




And they’re off!!






Time to try to tip people out of boats....


.....not necessarily successfully




Muz Jr taking an early bath






Daily Star headline – “Naked man rows across Windermere” shock horror


Bongo encampment


Barbecue? – I think I’ll go out in the boat again


Barbie challenge - burgers with a generous dose of Dave’s Insanity Sauce


Was it hot? – Is Bin Laden’s turban wet?

Lovely relaxing weekend, thanks Di x
Was actually nice to see a drop of rain we needed some, just a shame up in the lakes it doesn't do moderation sometimes

Nice pics Brian and Muz

The best bit was the babies awhhh. It was great to be back bongoing. We have been asleep since we got back but I will now put up some pics from us and some from a budding photographer, young Cian (Team Jetskier).

Thanks for a brilliant weekend, despite the weather - like the little naughty girl, when it bad it was very bad but when it good it was very very good!!
Well done
Sue, Paul & Rob

The weather was the best part of this weekend. No one got burnt and the thunderstorms were the best, beautiful colours! I have to say I am an aquarian lol
