Subject: RE: Miskin at Easter 2006
Great weekend again - then a quiet drive home with an exhausted 'Mash' in the back of the car.

Lots of highlights for me. Watching the kids play (obviously)and having so much fun, singing in the cottage, meeting old friends, getting to know some familiar faces a bit better and meeting some new friends. Also enjoyed the 'find the harmony' game I got into with Mike Nicholson and Tony from Capella on Sunday night after the pills (and Jo's wine) had kicked in - see below.

Time Nick the soundman got a mention. He did a fantastic job with the PA system in the Scout hut again. One of the unsung heroes year after year.

Most missable part of the weekend for me was the tooth infection that kicked in on Saturday and made life pretty miserable for a while. Sitting in a tent extracting a filling with a penknife to relieve the pressure , by torchlight, is something I have no desire to repeat anywhere again. Try finding a Pharmacy open on Easter Sunday near Miskin!   Thanks to the person who finally supplied me with some industrial strength horse pills to relieve the pain, I'm in your debt. Last time I get my root canals done day before a festival !!

Rota and roots allowing, see you next year..
