Harpenden Games 2012

Great photo essay John, I relived every moment. It was really nice to meet you and the other X markers. It was a great day out and a really well organised event. I suppose the beer was a bit expensive, but I don't mind paying a bit extra when the real ale (Tring brewery) comes straight from the barrel, and the lager was Peroni (which tends to be very expensive anywhere). It was compensated by the free whisky being given out by the man from Whyte & Mackay. In fact I thought the catering was excellent, especially the hog roast!
Hope to meet up again soon. Regards Freddie (Morris) the one with the stick.

Looks like a great day out. Thanks for sharing, John (and for working in some more photos of that kilt that I dearly love)!

Finally got Photobucket to upload.

A few more random pictures of the day and X Markers. Hopefully, I can fill in a few gaps

Freddy, A new member (who's name I can't remember, sorry), Dougle and me.

Three shots of Paul's new kilt - it really is quite spectacular!







The saying 'A picture can't do it justice', is so true in this case.

Although a very similar has been posted already, I am including this one as most of us are looking at one camera this time. There were three cameras on the go at that moment. There is a second reason. You will note the the little notice with 'Hamish' on it. We are X Markers and we should not forget absent friends.

Sue with her friend who is very visually impaired (sorry we didn't get longer to chat), Martin, Freddy, Simon, John, Chas and Hamish and Paul.



Chatting X Markers



More chatting



Can we chat - we can chat for England!



Finally at the end of the day as everybody was going home. What's left of the X Markers and some of the Gay Gordons and some friends - all kilties together!



I must mention Robbie the Piper as well, who stopped by, with only enough time for a hello/goodbye. If by chance we have left someone out between us, please shout out.

Everytime we have one of these get togethers, the amazing thing is that everybody gets on immediately, as we have all been friends for years. For that I am extremely grateful and humbled. Thank you one and all.

Regards

Chas

I must second that Chas. Thanks for your hospitality, John and Paul thanks for the great photos, and thanks to all the other members for making such a great day memorable. P.S. Dougle, judging by that muckle great stick it looks as though you'd been shopping!
