Pirate Theme was what they were dressed as at Rushden.

Lancashire Lad 15th May 2008 11:42 AM

our thoughts on Belvoir this year..............................BRILLIANT!!!!!!! !!!!!

Warm welcome on arrival and our working area ready and waiting, complete with drinking water tap.
Field conditions 100times better than the other sites as it was alot firmer soil and had a tarmac road running through the site. With no mud to hinder us we had a great time making saw dust.
Next years event cant come soon enough as its in a lovely setting.

Congratulations to the 2 Pauls and Phil for their efforts.
