A few pics from Team Muz
Thanks to Ian, Marianne, Brandy & Henderson for organising another fantastic weekend. Some inclement weather didn’t dampen any spirits and we all had a great time. A few pics from us....
An early start and we’re set up by 7.30am in a lovely spot. Briefly....
....while Muzette checks out the ‘chicklings’ on the river bank....
....and I get some breakfast on the go
“Does my bum look big in this?”
Mid-morning and I’m tyred already
Next – the Bongo Olympics and our own version of the Olympic torch
....and the Parade of Olympians
I can’t help thinking there’s some unlikely contenders here
A Bongo especially adapted as a video tower....
....to discreetly film proceedings - you have been warned
First event – Welly-Wanging....
....with some varying techniques.
Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
Some techniques less successful than others....
....even Muzette had a go
Event two – the Sack Race....
....with some equally unlikely contenders
Refreshments for the weary spectators, never mind the competitors
Egg & spoon race
Penalty shootout – some of these would get a game for England on current form
The final event – Sumo
Genius, whoever thought of this
Tired of washing up? No problem, eat it straight out of the pressure cooker....
....and then leave the dog to clean the rest
Time to get ready for the evening’s entertainment....
....things went a bit blurry at this stage....
....possibly due to the large volumes of Ribena being drunk
....or barbecued Spam being eaten
Now THAT’s what you call a tin of Spam
Balanced diet – beer & Spam
Industrial Grade Spam in progress....
....go on, you know you want to
Matching hats
Mini-crisis – “Where’s Little-Legs?” – Asleep in our Bongo
....with Muzette
Great weekend, must do it again some time

Re: A few pics from Team Muz
Mike, it was disorienting pitching without you there, but we were advised to move as some others had been turfed off there at 10pm AFTER they had set up their awning - not happy bunnies. So we thought there was little chance of being able to move ourselves come 10pm Saturday so we moved in readiness. Turned out to be a good move anyway, right near the marquee so a good spot from which to take in the bandmikeonb4c wrote:Another great Bash.

So next year, you'll have to rough it with the rest of us plebs

Re: A few pics from Team Muz
Excellent photos Muz. I wish I could comment as well as you do! Really sorry I missed it but I had a wonderfully exciting time watching Elbow in pouring rain, losing my purse, panicking because a big thing with high white lights was moving away from me in the middle of the car park (tractors), unable to get off car park field because the nits in cars got stuck, sleeping in back while waiting to move (pre-planned - had beds made up ready), driving home to report loss of credit card - oh it was fun!
Elbow were brilliant though! Next time, yes, there will be a next time - I'll pay the extra for VIP tickets so I don't have to queue for the toilets, bar or food! Plus I can hobnob with the likes of Chris Mead from Waterloo Road and John Bishop!
