|
 Just arrived........ |
 Jon Becomes the first person of the day to claim their bit of ground to sit on. Crisps make an almost immediate appearance |
Click....whirr....whirr..... Ron ponders (for 2 seconds only) which beer to start with |
 It was damn cloudy but the rain held off (for a bit anyway) |
Ron with pint #4 at 13:00 |
Mr Poddington tries the minute steak rolls (or should that be 'Mr Minit' steak rolls??) |
 Jon with some weird concoction that he brought from home. |
Ron zigzagging his way back from the gents |
 Mark pulls the cider-wenches |
Give him a bag of compost and we could call him Beatrix Potter !! |
 Ron stumbles into this shot on Al Wrigley |
 Ron then proceeded to tell Mark how much he likes Bass |
 Should Al *really* be wearing sunglasses? |
 A gaggle of girlies catches Jon's eye |
 The rain arrived, so we dove for cover ! |
 Ron's quite happy though.....he's nearer the beer ! |
 Al notices the arrival of Simon Squance |
 Mark.... gagging after drinking some 'Black Rat' cider! |
 The gaggle of girlies that Jon liked |
 The rain stops....... Jon is straight back out to sit on the wet grass ! |
Ron, Al and me though decide to visit the facilities |
Al using the aforementioned |
 Jon tries to master the art on sitting comfortably on damp grass |
 Ron ponders what to have for pint #10 |
 .....eventually settling for a pint of Headf**ker (Devizes brewery) |
 Hmmmm....could that be the lovely Caroline ? |
Jon pauses to cop a quick letch |
 ....while Al succeeds in getting her phone-number |
 ...while Mark demonstrates what he'd like to do |
 Ron falls over for the first time ! |
 Jon laughed, so Ron then pushed him over ! |
 Ron, trying to scrounge some beer-tokens off Mark ! |
 "Cor !..... spot them over there !!" says Mark |
 (camera pans in for a look) |
 Ron faints from the excitement ! |
 But not for long.... there is beer to be drunk ! |
 Al, having now memorised Caroline's phone number looks pretty chuffed ! |
 Ron, just before we woke him up ! |
 Al gives Ron a kick !..... |
Ron then does his Geisha dance ! |
 Some ladies that I keep bumping in to ! |
...But enough of that, rumbled by the wife ! |
 Ali with the aforementioned Caroline |
 Jon spots Sue pulling up into the car park |
Ron then proceeded to drink pint #13 down in one ! |
 Ali helps Jon to remain standing en route to the car-park |
 "You're not drunk are you Dad??" asks Helen |
Ron proceeds to climb over the fence... |
 Ron picks himself up after falling over the fence ! |
A very good day out and also the second visit for me as I had done the rounds on the Friday night as well. The weather could have been better but at least the selection of beers and the music was better than last years. |
