A weekend of appeasing the wrath of SWMBO

Yes i tried to regain some brownie points by going on a family scouting camp over the weekend. This was held at an old school owned by the scouts opposite Lostock Dam (dont panic its not a good site the neighbours have lights). we arrived on friday night and setup in the dark, and as so true to form when you dont have any astrogear - it was crystal clear from 10pm - 4am. so up early saturday mornig ad it was a trip to the dairy just after the rickety bridge and cattle grate - the farm on the left to those that remember this area of lostock . Then the rest of the weekend was a canoeing paradise for the kids and even the wife had a go, first on Lostock dam then on the river. Had a good weekend (was very warm sat arvo and sunday).

and i have a new tent - i now know its very waterproof - a very heavy downpour on saturday afternoon tested this!
