No not charlie. In the morning a dog came out of nowhere and was scoffing all the left over food. But before I have a chance he picked up the plastic box the food was in and took the cake out of it.

That was a great turnout and with the weather being kind , was another sucessfull Xmas camp .
Landyliam deserves a special mention for escorting diners up and down the hill in the dark above and beyond the call of duty.
I am looking forward to Dowser and kayak girls photos (should reflect the true spirit of xmas lol)
Just a wee foot note no live trees where harmed in the making of this 2011 Xmas camp.

That was certainly a night to remember and I can't think of a better way to kick off the Christmas Season.

Big thanks to everyone involved.  The effort that everybody put into the food was awesome, resulting in one of the best Crimbo Dinners I've had in a long time.  From the Roast Ham to the Raspberry Ruffles, every bite was a taste sensation!!!  :D

Oisin, you definitely win the prize for best photo of the year!!! I totally love the night shot of the Christmas Camp and I can see it being used to advertise every Christmas Camp to come.

Few more pictures below.  Sorry there's nothing as exciting as Oisin's shot:

Very good wild camper,I've been looking into those G0-PRO camera's for some time now,done a wee bit of video editing myself,mostly with Imovie,but i've strarted using Final-cutpro,enjoyed watching that mate,just remember now, how hard the fire was too light until we found the dry bracken,how does Megavideo differ from You-tube then.             MERRY CHRISTMAS

I have videos on Youtube with music (its totally not copyrighted by the way. Wink Wink.) They have just banned my video from certain countries, I think at the minute its just the Germans that cant watch it.
