Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

I got there for a couple of hours early Friday but she hicked off in the end so had to leave. Walked passed Druids but it was loud and she wasn't happy there so went down overlooking cascades.

Thanks for the comments guys :nod:

It was a blast :nod:

10 of us went - Met up with 6 more from Bristol as we always do.

took a big amp, large speakers, subwoofer and a generator :nod:
Shedloads of beer, burgers and other food, a raised firepit to cook it all on.
3 gazeebo's and 108 feet of rope lights completes the picture :D

Partied all weekend - From Thursday to Sunday - Mostly still up drinking at 6:30am (Pimms and Vodka just isn't right, but it was all that was left by Sunday morning haha) , then a few hours sleep and up at 9:00am for the racing :nod: Most night had 30+ round enjoying the fire, tunes and great comany - Many thanks to them for helping make our weekend.

We met a large group of Lee Johnston's family and friends at Croft and partied all weekend with them, which is how we ended up with the invite for the after party.

I also need to thank a guy who's name I never got, but turns out he is a photographer for the company that is in charge of the media for the Champions League - He ran me through all of the manual settings on my camera, which is why I have "better" pics this time, as well as a better understanding of aperture, ISO values and shutter speeds :nod: :D
