What a GREAT week!

[melanco]

Well, after turning up not knowing a soul, as my first encounter with the VV mob, I could not have pulled up in a better spot. The loverly company of Roger and Lynn, Ray and Jeanette, Steve (Urkel), Craig, Deb, Cerez and Millie made it a very communal atmosphere. Everyone in the whole group made me feel very welcome and comfortable and the lack of rules should be celebrated!!! Here's a few more pics:

Here's a shot of the room that we had the Tasteless and Tacky night in. Fabulous job Will & Lyn!

after Roger and Lyn left, the boys pinched a couple of tables and made one long one so no Jayco's would feel the need to crash our party... This is us feeling religious by having fish and chips on Good Friday!

And I think the kids enjoyed their movie nights on the side of my van..... that is when we weren't making too much noise drinking and talking toot nearby.....but it wasn't me Cobber, promise...

I even ended up with a cleaner van by the end of the week. Thanks for the support (!) all you work watchers......

A really fabulous week, with a wonderful bunch of mad people and lots of relaxing and fun times. I will definitely be back.

Hi Mel,
I helped when you cleaned the van over those 2 days. Don't you remember....I moved your water bucket at least twice on the first day.
Also, that stuff you used was very potent. I didn't want to get too close while you were using it, in case it splashed in my beer!!
Cheers
Steve

Hey Steve

Just so long as you had those priorities in the right order......

Really did enjoy the company though, would never have done it at home with just the dog to laugh at me!

Hi Mel,
Good to be able to meet you and learn more about the ProHart project. Like you I hardly knew anyone before we went on this trip, aside from Firefighter (bought the Franklin from him) and Goingrey (Brendan).
Thanks for providing the Carapark Cinema - the kids loved it!
Can't wait to see Bess with her fins when you get them done.

Cheers,

Gristy

I know i did not scrub but i did feed you hot cross bunnies!!!! Your van looked great after a little elbow grease (by you) -yes can't wait until we see Bess all finished.

Hope to catch up again one day. Kirstie
