Thanks for cleaning the BBQ Doug - we'll have to press gang some volunteers next time.

Additional to my thanks above:
Lewis for fixing the Dodoka up to get an MOT again, doing the clutch after Shipston, getting the Dodoka to Wales in good working order, in no doubt trying circumstances, as well as getting it running again after being inadvertently flooded..
Notwithstanding the tyre issues etc, so thanks to Pete & Sharon, Pete Morrill who all helped with that issue...
Ditto PeteM for taxing it in time for the event
I hope the driving at Llanfyllin was well worth your efforts
=================
From my perspective, seeing Muna using it to make a darn good 'failed ascent' reverse down, then a successful climb, and then Jenny a nicely controlled decsent from the top of the steep climb track.. was testament enough to the efforts involved in ensuring the Dodoka is always available at our site events

I had a great time, many thanks to the usual suspects. Super to see such a big turnout.
Doug I think the mystery of your missing spanner may have been solved, expect a call.
PS.
Anyone got a TD starter they can part with ?

Have to say I had a really super time churning up some Welsh mud and meeting up with loads of genuinely nice people. In addition, I love nothing better than sitting by a campfire, drinking beer and talking sh*te.
Thanks to Clive, Jenny, Doug and Aidan for the organisation and to all for the welcome given to the 'Paddys' from overseas.
I arrived home at 07.45 am on Monday morning and promptly fell asleep in the jacuzzi. Paul arrived home today and Dave is still driving around Wales - not lost but on a weeks holiday.
Not to sure if I was 'the furthest travelled' but thanks for the mention anyway and I have booked the bus into the body shop for remedial work necessary
See you all next year in Germany .............

Further honourable mention to Andrew Scott for being the furthest travelled (from the S of Ireland) and risking his new paint job and then being totally philosophical after he'd dented the nearside rear arch; should be ok with a polish honest

Some vids!
Pete addressing Rob's concerns after last year's chainsaw episode
Andy Synro-Nutz puts the final horsepower into the hi-lift-jack-as-winch, dragging my Doka back off a tree in the 'Woods challenge' -
Russel rushes to machete some overhanging branches should they threaten the lovely orange paintwork... typical of Syncronauts events, 20 others are more than happy to look on and chew the fat about anything and everything - that's the charm of it!
A quick 360 pan around the (amply sized!) campsite as Sat night barbecues get fired up
The Range-Rover Special breaks the Welsh water-speed limit
