Great fun. Lots of sun, minimal rain, lots of beer and one of those acts of stupidity than cannot be repeated. Well, not for at least 5 minutes. Forget the bands, the highlight of the weekend was this morning when all were gathered around a couple of stoves either cooking or watching the cooking being done by those more able. Someone noticed that one stove was running low on meths and when it was suggested that he carry out a 'hot fuelling' . The top was removed from the meths container and it was liberally slopped over the still burning stove. Flames went everywhere and the container caught fire along with a reasonable amount of dry grass. Cue much stamping on grass and throwing of coffee and water to extinguish the flames. After the laughter had stopped and the refueling man had eased the burns on his hand with water the cooking was started again. After a few minutes it was noticed that the stove hadn't received much fuel and it was just about dead. Someone again suggested hot fuelling and jokingly said it was ok this time because there were no visible flames. The same refueling man removed the top from the meths container and yet again slopped meths over the burner. Cue more burning grass, more cups of coffee being thrown and much laughter. I'll not name and shame, I'll leave it to the person to come forward and receive the acclaim he deserves.
