Easter 2003

Over the course of the Easter weekend a group of us gathered at the wood to carry out a variety of tasks, and have a bit of fun as well. Alan, Sue, and Jo arrived on Good Friday, with Matt, Brian, Mary, Simon, and Jim arriving on the Saturday. The award for bravest (or perhaps stupidest) person of the weekend goes to Jim, who decided to sleep in a hammock in near freezing conditions. The rest of us were snug and warm in our tents.

	The kitchen - Mary's masterpiece of construction.
	My this is civilised! And yes, that fire was that hot.
	Campsite technology at its best.
	The Chilli doesn't smell that bad does it?
	This is what its all about. Graham (the owner) taking it easy. Firewood prepared, wrapped up warm, and settled in for the evening.
	Domestic duties underway. Alan, Jo, and Sue try to sort out the aftermath of our Chilli supper.
