Stargazer : May he can do an encore at Wasdale 😉😀
Shame you weren't with us last night Chris, Wiggy was very entertaining company 🙂

oops just notice I picked the wrong forum post .. doh! Shouldn't use the back browser!!!

Tad envious Chris, I went to Cornwall hoping to see one .. but they all had their cloaking devices on and the weather was a bit stormy.

My inspiration is my personality, I just get a buzz of being outside and watching nature do it's thing in the quiet and stillness of it. It's like stopping the world spinning for a little while.

When I was little my parents were mostly working, but they had a small boat which meant some weekends away in around the upper reaches of the Thames, which is beautiful, so maybe it began there.

Oh what memories guys. Last weekend was not bad watching Deka 'doing' Apocalypse Now whilst playing charades🙂

It certainly has been Frankie 😉😀

I can't help smiling at these fab stories & memories. Wot a blast x

Forever lost: OMG my ears are burning 😀😀 sorry about your's FL I was so shocked. 🙂
Rourky: Banana's and Bullets weekend left me red faced with laughing and embarrassment. One of the best moments for me are with Ruth and her plastic bags.
The Mind is Willing: there are far to many to mention because we often have belly laughs with wonderful people.😀

Did he 🙂 he never said lol
I like abit of danger 🙂
I wish I could believe that Love but i think i'm going to have trouble keeping up with you I've seen how fit your looking now 🙂
Noooooo not jopo she could talk the legs off a rocking horse lol only joking jopo I know you'll probably read this late one night 🙂did you finish part three ???? 🙂
Ok Love just warning you as I know you have high standards 😉lol

Oops last comment belongs to our thread! 😈😈😈

MG kept it very quiet that you were coming so I had no idea
😮 you live dangerously!
I will still be at the back FL so gladly keep you company 🙂 Once I start you'll wish I was Jopo!!!! 😈😈😈
I want to see the zoo too. It really doesn't take much to make me happy! 🤔😀

Awwwwwwwwww Love thats brought a tear to my eye to think that my presence left you completely speechless pity the same couldn't be said for jopo I still suffer with ringing in my ears after her screams lol that said I really enjoyed the day the company was great the weather not sooooo good but can I just say Love I think I may be further towards the back than you this year as I haven't done any long walks for some months but then you could always hang back and tell me all about your adventures like you did about Peru which I really enjoyed as I've never been further than Wales no I tell a lie I've been to North Devon lol 🙂

We make memories daily. Some surviving the test of time and some just to be savored for the moment they're made. The latest for me was on the Ale Trail where there were tears! and as this year is invitation packed I know there are more to be made in the not too distant future! Watch this space kids!!!! 😋😈😈😈

Ha ha ha Frankie it was. That was a total surprise and yes I was completely speechless!! And THAT really doesn't happen very often 😈😈😈

BJ I think that is so perfect 🙂 Thanks for sharing

Another memorable time (eh TMIW) was meeting FL at Malverns. Thought u were truly forever lost until we discovered u existed on the flesh. Lol lol & more memorable was Claudette speechless at this very siting lol lol

Whilst out walking with a friend yesterday near Calke Abbey we discovered a series of inscribed stiles, I took photos & solved the puzzle which went south to north.The sentiment of this poem by Hillaire Belloc seemed appropriate to my enjoyment of OD 🙂🙂
From quiet homes and first beginnings,
Out to the undiscovered ends,
There's nothing worth the wear of winning,
But laughter and the love of friends" 🙂

Pear drop (Sarah's) bell on her sisters bike constantly ringing of it's own accord on Trekkies's canal outing,confusing or upsetting many fishermen and pedestrians!

Minty lying spreadeagled at the bottom of a hill near to the end of a walk and shouting to everyone that he'd sucked his octopus dry !!! he may however have outdone himself not long after when he had a 10 minute fight trying to get his duvet in it's cover !!! 😋😋😋

😀😉

😋😋😋

Think you may have misunderstood Ka Love hes trying for a refund !!!! lol🙂

Welcome Keep adventuring. I hope it is! And that you make lots of your own fun memories with this very crazy bunch 😀

Hi Vee,i remember that wet weekend,your were both like an apparation enveloped in the mist & rain.Oh yes Bronte Wanderer`s faceial expression when climbing Weatherlam Edge in horizontle rain "Is this safe"No worries Dave,just close your eyes when we reach the next overhang.That evening sitting in a circle under a plastic sheet Trekkie had rigged over his Caraven to enjoy a lovely BBQ😀😀

Me neither Frankie ☹
Oh God yes Twixmas!!!! 😈😈😈😈😈
We can certainly lead the stakes at laughing!! What was it I got you and Jane? a barcardi and lemonade and I added coke (cola) to whatever you were drinking!!! 😮🤔😋

Omg another funny nite was my first twixmas with TMIW and wiggy in the Indian. Another gigilicious evening. Fab time my friends. X

TMIW - omg I at top of the list for this thread. Yes Brecon III was one of the most hilarious nites I hv shared with 33 people on my knees. The funniest nite I hv had in a long time with some fab new friendships. Sadly I won't b at Brecon this year ☹

Jopo....enough said!

Minty that is not an image I want to go to bed with! 🤔🤔🤔🤔

I saw pictures from that wet weekend Vee people in PJ's were very amusing. Yes Keilder!!! OMG that pub! 😈😈😈 and Paul loosing and finding his phone had found its way back to Newcastle!!!

Can't wait to see you dressed in a DJ for the Summer Ball Minty that should have the cameras snapping!! 😋😀

Ignore him we looked fine!

😋

minty : We didn't look that bad, did we?!? Although it wouldn't surprise me after what we'd been through!

Yay Lisa! 😈😈😈😈😈 Yes we were supposed to be taking the easy route!!

I'm back 🙂

Hmmmm...now let me think....Hadrian's wall! TMiW and I decided to do a little detour and ended up getting lost. The only way we could get back on track was by, climbing over a crumbling waist-height wall surrounded by barbed wire and an electric fence. Not funny at the time, but always makes me chuckle now when I think about it 🙂

And yes, the OD signs - what were we thinking?! In fact that whole weekend was filled with nothing but laughter - happy days....

Wiggy & Blueray - and how can I forget making body signs for the site and the OD Angels on the Xmas recce!!! 😈😈😈😈😈

See this is what this site is about. Share more people
Rourky Jo alone has too many to mention!!!! 😈😈😈
I forgot about the scotch eggs!! 😈😈😈
MD there's definitely no hiding from Minty and we really wouldn't want to - not for long anyway! 😋😀
Terry, tutus and nail varnish!!
Kareoke in Barmouth! - Brooky Ruth & Leila!!! 😈😈😈
Appletreewick and the first attempt at the cereal box game! Caving and charming young men in hats!! 😈😈😈

Ohhhh TMIW far too many to mention but heres a few that spring too mind.
Jopo and her cycling advice.
Frankie and her drinking skills.
Stargazer and his lost scotch eggs.
Davems snoring and bunkbed freefall skills.
Tim and my late night giggling fit at xmas snorers.
To name a few, hopefully many more to come. 😋

So many funny moments Claudette, Tinkerbell, Born to be free and myself trying to hide from Minty in the lakes, Rick losing his map on a Peaks walk when he was supposed to be teaching me how to map read. Me trying to climb over a wire fence in Skye stood at the lower end trying to put my leg over where the fence was higher, didn't have the sense to turn around the other way. Bustagut and my boots, and not forgetting having to be manhandled by Deka to get my butt over a gate 🙂
So much laughter shared since joining this wonderful site 🙂 🙂 🙂

Vonnie: When you eventually bought a ticket that is! At least you kept up with me running down the platform🙂

preggy47(Andy): Never mind the poles, I'm bringing the tassels to Wasdale 😋

Pear Drop (Sarah68(Sarah)): Oh no, I hope I haven't permanently damaged you, and you were so good holding them poles.😋🙂🙂🙂

Oh! and how we laughed Vonnie😈😈

Well i like say it is a way to see poeple happy and enjoy life with out being alown
😀

I see a pattern forming Vonnie - well done!! 😋😈😉

Minty it started long before that! But clearly each time it's brought up it gets everyone in stitches!!!
preggy47(Andy): Pear Drop (Sarah68(Sarah)): It was indeed and the location and weather just enhanced the ridiculous! 😀

preggy47(Andy): A bare patch? that's nothing, I haven't been able to walk since that weekend!! 😋😀

Pear Drop (Sarah68(Sarah)): I agree and I've still got the bare patch to show for it.😈😈😈

preggy47(Andy): The Mind is Willing: KateB: That whole Edale weekend was hysterical, definitely one to remember 😀😀

KateB: The Mind is Willing: That evening was one of the funniest times iv every had, along with me tobogganing down a muddy hill on my derrière.😈😈😈😈

Morning Love feeling sentimental lastnight I see 🙂

I am curious what it takes to make some laugh as over 600 people have looked but not commented.

Kate it certainly was!!! 😈😈😈😈 And I shall leave him to live the other comments down 🤔😉
John we like an excuse to have a laugh. Blueray trying to eat a "veggie" pork pie was a good one and the speed with which she claimed the vodka! Or even Vonnie one way ticket!!
When I laugh so much I start to cry I know it's an outing I won't forget in a hurry!!! 😈😈😈😈!

The Mind is Willing: I have to give my thanks to Andy (preggy47) for making me giggle every time I think about mortgages!! .... That was definitely a have to be there moment???

In just one year the laughs are too many to mention,I have met so many new friends & I have had so many good times, especially the people who made me feel so special on the real ale trail & birthday trip. Thank you 🙂🙂🙂

As Rourkys bash is coming up I wonder if Frankie (if she's going) can repeat her trick of falling without spilling a drop of her drink?!!! 😈😈😈😈 And with such style and laughter!
