• Christmas Dinner and Camp 2015: December 05, 2015 - December 06, 2015

[LandyLiam]

awesome video    what a wonderful night, amazing teamwork to bring together such a great feed, here's a selection of my photos from the night.

I've watched this about 9 times and I still laugh every single time

Looks like another great Christmas Camp was had by all.

Apologies for not making it up when I said I would, but good intentions and all that.  Our new arrival, Amirah, arrived a week early and we had an open house on Saturday for the family to meet the latest member of the Dowser clan.



Unfortunately there was a lot of wetting the baby's head going on and I was unable to drive by the time the last reprobate had departed.

I suffered badly from FOMO, but it would have been madness to try to get down and join in the festivities.

There's always next year 

[Glenn B]

Congratulations mate.  Surely you could have squeezed her into your pack somewhere 

[LandyLiam]

Congratulations Dowser, as excuses go, that's almost acceptable (plan ahead for next year and abstain for the month of March!)

[RedLeader]

Worst excuse ever. You should have wrapped her in a papoose and come down eaten a load of sprouts

Only kidding, congrats mate

Hello one and all

I believe that I left my JetBoil at the campsite so I'm wondering if anyone picked it up?

It's got a camo sleeve around the pot.

Thanks and a very Happy Christmas to all.

Hi Tim

I definitely did see a Jetboil in a plastic bag (with some other utensils) just before leaving camp, quite near to the fire pit.  I assumed it was Yaks being the only one still not up.  Perhaps others have made the same assumption and it is still there?  I hope that you have some joy with it. 

[tjc]

 Thank you for the reply.

It may have been in a bag with Christmas puddings and brandy cream, whoever has the Christmas puddings and brandy cream enjoy!

Hopefully this will help to identify who may have my JetBoil!

Appreciated.

Tim

[LandyLiam]

I'll try and get up there for a wee look about some time this week.

[tjc]

Thanks very much Liam I really appreciate that.  I hope it's not too far out of your way.

[Glenn B]

Hopefully with a bit of luck it's still up there

Dowser mate, massive congratulations to you!!!

It's a just about a valid enough excuse not be there, well wet the baby's head at the next camp!

Yeah I saw that bag of puddings in the morning but I've no idea where it went!

Argh, how'd we forget to light the puddings!!!!
