I know conditions were difficult but this littering is not good

I thought Bongo folk were clean tidy people ...not dont want it.... dont need it.... so leave it.


:cry:

Disappointed :evil:

Well done Kawasaki Kid for moving the offending object .

Waynes's right. Poor old MC wrote and apologised as soon as they got home, before she'd even got her muddy boots off. I think even considering Buxton in that weather for a first Bongo outing was courageous. We ought to cast a Buxton Cross medal, to be be worn with pride only by those who were there, stood side by side in the wreckage of Fort Marquee at Buxton's Rift, fighting off the ferocious Element Tribe while wearing fancy dress. This legendary action will be forever talked about, and the heros revered, wherever Bongonuts meet to remember and give thanks to the early pioneers of Bongo

Did anyone manage to keep the portaloo for MC? Mine cost over £30 - I'd be unhappy to lose it. 8)

Did anyone find two (edit - possibly 3) white and pink melomine dinner plates in the marquee? We have got home and only have the others.
If you did, can I have em back sometime? Thanks.:
Still not found em?????

Anyone find em, we would like em back please. They match the set.

Thanks,

Dave (the quiet one)

It did have its advantages did squeezing the Bongo between two trees near the entrance!!!

At least no one knocked me up at 1 in the morning to sort the marquee out :roll:

My hats off to all of You that were,I didnt hear a thing.All I heard was hurricane harry trying to pull the roof off.

I'm sorry you were dissapointed but not half as dissapointed as we were to be in the position of trying to get a blue child and ill adult home whilst packing up in the dark. It wasn't deliberate as I went to a lot of trouble to source it and could have fixed it. I certainly cant afford to replace it. I also had to leave my red tracks that had been very useful for everyone there because someone left them in the mud and I could not find them in the dark but Hatris has been amazing and managed to retreive them for me. I have had them for 14 years and certainly wouldnt have left them if I could have avoided them. Things dont alway go to plan - and this weekend was one of those thing I'm afraid.

Just to confirm as in the other post - the loo contained two wees thats it and it wa the clean water tank that was leaking. Nothing nasty.
