Mel has dug out his photos from the 92 season at Piddington. |

There seem to be a lot of pictures of girls. How odd I wonder what Mel could have been thinking
about? You would think that we did nothing except sit about drinking tea and you could well be right
as I recall that year was spectacularly wet and windy. This was also the year of Bap Man TM
who went round placing stale bread products on the poles of everyone's tents in the middle of the
night. It was also the year that my tent disintegrated or as I suspect was eaten by one of the
aforementioned Baps (crafty buggers you have to watch them all the time).
Oh yes and finally we held International SPAM Day a great success (we managed to
insult the cook who though we were commenting on the quality of his food and confuse an American
Lady whose home town actually DID hold a Spam Day - only in Piddington, you couldn't make it up
could you?). Of course no major event like this can go without an injury or two. I remember at least
one cut from the cans' sharp edges and a German lad (George I think he was called) unaccustomed to
the ways of Pidd actually ate some - hospital staff say he is in a critical but stable position.
