Just back from Aviemore…Once again thanks to Macca for the hospitality. A bigger turn out than last year, infact at one point it had more than doubled! The usual of sitting round a chalet in whatever you went to bed in the night before playing games and drinking coffee to desperately avoid a hangover played a large part of it. Arrived on saturday just enough time to go to the shops and buy enough beer and meat to fill a spare car. The sit down watch an exciting England draw and see Scotland beat France 1-0…Genius. Then it’s off to Cafe Mambo The Hip and Happening pub where last year we got lots of free drinks…no joy this year. Clock hits 11 whole pub gets up and leaves…Off to the only nightclub Aviemore has to offer…The VAULTS!! lots of happy hardcore dancing fuelled by our £120 kitty. Which by the way ended up with some comedy dancing and the bulk of us leving the club only to fall 2ft into nettles! Tommy Hart takes the worst of it and Christerry failing to see the potential hazard throws Sam McMillan in thinking he’s just Won a game. Walk home in the dark only to get lost but miraculously end up home.

Next morning slightly rough, lots of coffee and itchy nettle…ness. Eventually all up and out and go for a wander round Loch an Eilein, Just What the doctor ordered fresh air and the oppertunity to throw your friends in a loch. Fully recovered it’s back for more booze and games then off to the local pub quiz. Came 4th which was pretty good considering about 15 teams played and some were clearly substituting the fun element for serious competition. Back home more Booze and Games. Repeat morning ritual of Coffee and Crap dvds maybe some golf (the computer kind not the real deal).

Monday is sports day…Over to The sports centre we clamber for squash, badminton and some swimming. At this point I realise despite all the drinking and silly dancing I am quite unfit and struggling to keep up with the competition. Lose most of the games and go in a huff with Macca as he’s too tall and good at badminton. sweat out a good 3 pints then back to the chalet for games and booze.Tommy leaves us (5 people left, an awkward number for game playing) I cook T and the chalet smells over-whelmingly of cauliflower. Off out back to Cafe Mambo for quiet drinks…Eventually Thrown out and realise there is no possible way we could have got lost on the way home the night before. Back for games and booze.

Tuesday is adventure day…We head into the middle of no-where hire big fancy mountain bikes and head off BMX bandits style into the hills. At this point it’s noticed again how much of a role fitness has to play, and again how much i lack it. Knock up a good 15m round trip round a couple of lochs stopping only for jaffa cakes and to repair maccas puncture. Also included were river walks, sam going over his handle bars and cycling on a sandy beach. We pelt home on the main road everyone is knackered and suffering from the saddle. We get home go swimming then back on the booze and out for T. We all have starters, burgers and deserts undoing all of todays good work. Ross leaves…man down 4 is a better number. Back to the chalet for more beer and games…At this point it’s a struggle, the late nights and early mornings have destroyed everyone so basically we all drink until we pass out.

Next day we have to tidy the chalet and try and shift the cauliflower stench i emitted 2 days ago then sadly we leave. Alot of hilarious details have been missed mostly due to alcohol…for this i Apologise.

For all involved i salute you…
