We really enjoyed it too!
The dinner was amazing, thanks everyone for the feast and hospitality!
I really wanted to camp but glad that I didn't. Really couldn't be bothered drying stuff out today  ;D

Was a fantastic camp.  It's a real highlight every year.  Love the fact that it has been possible to do regardless of the weather, and it doesn't get much worse than Saturday.  Full credit to you guys who got camp set up so that we were warm and dry.  Food was gorgeous, as always.  And thanks for making Cameron so welcome, great memories were made.

It was a WILD camp alright with WILD weather, it was extreme!  Loved meeting up with you all again.  I had to get up at 5.50am and pack up tent and kit and trek through the forest.  Sorry I missed breakfast and didn't get to say goodbye!  I hope I didn't wake you all up packing up.  Roll on next one!

That was an immense night! Immense rain, immense wind, immense food, immense company, immense craic. Well done to everyone for making it such an enjoyable night in the wilds of winter.

I also have a wee video ready of the Christmas Dinner Camp!  Are you all ok with your children being featured Heggs, Dowser, whoRYA?etc.  Dowser I have included some of you pictures as the camera stop working and it was such a wild night.  Trying to make the best of a bad job with my limited equipment and editing skill!

I'd love to see it, usually there's no issue with content  :) :) as long as there's no footage of me doing any cooking as I don't know how, if you know what I mean  ;D ;D

No problem at all... get it uploaded. I'm watching Casino Royale for the millionth time, and it would be great to be able to turn it off and watch something more interesting 😂

Bring it on.

Incidentally I was watching a movie called Lion.  Great wee movie.  Couldn't find anything to watch in the action, fantasy, superhero, thriller etc. Genres and went with a true story/personal type one.  Kids really enjoyed it.

Uploaded people.  Stick the headphones on and give it a watch.  The camera went down half way through so Dowsers photos were great!  If you were there it will help you remember after Glen B 's Mulled wine!  If you couldn't make it..watch and weep!  Thanks to everyone for a great night.

Love it, great effort.  Nice wee touch at the end, Glenn's has the final say ;D

Just sat with a big grin on my face the whole way through that, it was a brilliant but hard night and it would have been a shame if we hadn't had taken our 'man up tablets' and just cracked on with it.  We're an elite group, we should get wee patches made up " I was daft enough to attend the 2018 Xmas camp and survived to camp another day". A great night with a bunch of top WILDERS and as I said at the end roll on next year :D ;D :D.     PS I think Xmas falls on the 25th of August this year.....

Brilliant video, just brings back what a good night it was despite the awful weather. Roll on next year, but what about something a little calmer in between. Some sun would be nice and I've an 8 year old itching to camp 8)

Excellent RT, that was great to watch. You really captured the weather and how grim it was but also the amount of fun and good food and good craic it was despite the conditions.
