I thought it was a fantastic weekend. I meant to post earlier than this but for some reason the last couple of days have felt like I've been recovering from something. .. I still haven't totted up the money raised yet (the envelope is still in my jacket pocket) but will post later. I have a few pictures from the Spotty Pup rib ride which would for me have made a weekend on it's own but also from Marks party, I get a feeling he's going to be known as the hostess with the mostest from now on but weather some of us will be invited again, well we'll have to wait and see. A big WELL DONE and THANK YOU TO GARY. And of course everyone else who just turned up, You made the night special.
 
Just found this clip of my lovely nieces doing their thing.. I reckon we should get them down to the next B&N :)




They are great - I can see you in the costume but can hear you singing in tune :)




Sorry to have missed what was obviously a great evening but Emily had a huge dance show over the weekend and was amazing, a very proud Dad !


Henry :)
 
The famous rib ride - with Kwackers at the helm (I hope that's what get posted, it took hours to upload last night)

I think Rich was on his best behaviour because it wasn't his boat, plus with geriatric passengers like me that need to hold on with at least one hand while filming, there wouldn't have been any footage if he had been doing donuts.

So here's the Script
After o Garyo made such an effort and colhel thought up the Charity bit and we threw a few quid at it
I reckon we need to throw a few more sobs at it
Like we need to make it 5500 quid
Sorry 500 quid as a round sum, however 5500 would be good!
So I have asked colhel to sticky a linky thing on ere so's them that couldn't come could donate
I Know , I know, there are Charities buggin us from this way or that
But heck a few more quid folks?
Wot u rekon?
You know it was such a good weekend, yes and I do know more of these get togethers used to happen Pre 'Recession' red diesel and all that there
We are where we are now and that's the way it is
So, colhel put a Link up so's the Rich Mamby Pamby surfern Softies can chuck thieir disposable income at yer charity, bloody tossers that they are, oh and a few Nothern ex mill owners and tight ars&d Yorkshire gits and them Staffordshire skinflint types like Searush, yer wanna see what I saw under the aft berth in His Camper!!!!!

Is the guy in yellow(1st photo)a passer-by who just decided to pose(2nd photo) in your group photo?
If not may I suggest you ask him to look a bit more interested and less hungover next time ;)

Only pulling his leg, sounds like a good weekend was had and a few quid raised for a good cause.

Now how many of you can ride a bike?
