The site, before we start pitching tents
Part way through, tarpulins covering the kit

When we arrived on site, we had just finished unloading as it started to rain
We covered the personal and cooking gear with tarpaulins and got on with pitching the site
After around an hour the heavens really opened and we had to call a break in the pitching and
shelter in the marquee. Once the rain eased again we carried on constructing our site, including a dinning shelter
Then a well deserved tea of burgers, potaoes and veg. In the evening there was a quick ramble around the site.
