Fields of Gold (or muddy brown)

We survived! 2 weeks of camping later and we're all still in one piece, just. The camp went up, though in a not so organised order as usual. We had blazing hot sunshine and torrential rain, though having both every day for 6 days was a bit wearing. Naomi found her field legs after 2 days which resulted in Jennie being the most active 7 month pregnant person and Russell being the most nagged person (Jennie - "will you watch her, I can't catch her any more"). Russell seemed to recover from tonsillitis by throwing himself into erecting tents etc. Jennie perfected using variations on the 'Naomi is 11kg, you don't stop me picking her up' theme.

Debbie's insistence on us getting this clip on chair made itself well appreciated this year:

Check out the wellies, they were well used too and very much loved. Dad has a great picture of her in her all in one waterproof and wellies (which she lived in for 3 days on advance) which I'll get a copy of later.



We finally had some amazing sunsets at the end of our second week. This picture has not been altered at all, it really was that colour.




Also, we've no idea why we've never thought of taking this picture before; I think its really cool.

Welliphilia - inordinate attachment to one's welly boots. Now I could show you a photograph of her dad in the bath ...

Good choice of foot attire - you knew marrying your brother in law off to a farmer would have some benefits, eh?
