Pimms '06

Its that time of year again - time to dust off the tent and meet up with friends in a field somewhere for a weekend of drunken sports and whatever else ensues!

This year we were in a little village called Mollington, nr Banbury in Oxfordshire from 24-25 June 2006. The usual crowd were there: me, Toby, Paula, Dom, Sarah, Paul, Jen and this years new comer Rosey.

After the compulsory food and booze run we headed back to the campground for some boule, field cricket, beer and Pimms - naturally!

With the sun going down and people getting pinker it was time to crack out the BBQ's. Discovered a new method of preparing corn on the cob, involving manually lubing it up with butter - thanks Paul (sir)! One meat-feast later and I cracked out my own birthday cake with compulsory oversized 2 and 9 candles (..they were out of 6's!).

We stopped by the local pub in the evening for a pint and to catch the score (World Cup, football, anyone?). We obviously made quite an impression as a group as on leaving they asked us to try not to have sex on the way home...

After a slightly sticky night we woke up to a full English cooked by Paula, Sarah and Paul - this truly was camping in style! Walking off our breakfast we stumbled onto local National Trust land and found a very cool obelisk and summer house (see cheesy pic).

Looking forward to Pimms '07!! belle x
