Well, yes, but I have strictly banned MBH from posting pictures of mine and Looby's rears. Or any dodgy photos of us in profile which show how fat I am. Well, basically, any of the photos he took of me. :lol:

DON'T get any ideas, Scurra. Please remember that I DIDN'T push you in the lake. :D

I don't know how to do more than one picture at once so here's another . Scurra explaining the rather complicated sounding rules of the hollywood film game......

Great Pictures and I'm glad the weather is good

I've just arrived home and I would like to say a huge THANK YOU to Supersleuth for inviting us into her home and looking after us so well. An equally big thank you goes to Mr Sleuth for putting up with his wife's daft friends, cooking dinner and running around after us all with drinks etc. I also must mention Master Sleuth and his lovely girlfriend who acted as waiter / waitress all day and stopped us from getting lost in the woods.

Thanks must also go to Looby for her help with all the organisation and a deliciously intoxicating trifle. :D

Not forgetting LAT who (apart from her culinary contribution) was the source of today's entertainment, sending us on an enjoyable stroll round Basildon Park and causing us a few grey hairs with her anagrams until finally we had The aha moment!

I'd like to say thanks to all those mentioned above and also to Scurra for last night's entertainment which fernando is telling us is the best evening of fun he's had in a long time. Unfortunately there are no pictures of me, Looby, Supersleuth and Redfraggle pretending to be dead sheep! (although in stitches of laughter)

Thank you to Bunnylump for the puzzles. I haven't started them yet but I look forward to! The comment on the front which said something like 'You will only receive hints when a certain amount of sweating has taken place' caused me to decide that we should all receive hints straightaway, the weather was so nice yesterday that after that visit to the nature reserve there is no doubt that many of us were all sweating!!!

Oh yes I meant to mention Scurra and Bunnylump, but my post got a bit rambling. Also thank you to Gill for the souvenir bags and Quiz about forum members.

I'd just like to add my heartfelt thanks to those lovely people who put so much effort into organising all this. You did a tremendous job, well done. It was such a pleasure to meet you all (so sorry I managed to miss LAT :( ) Supersleuth, your family were an absolute credit to you too!

Hoping everyone has a safe journey home.

Clvrlad, I hid behind the gazebo at just the right time :D !! Phew, so photos avoided so far. Thank goodness.
