Back to 'work' today. Met up at the Main Bus terminal at 8:30am as previously arranged only to find that the plans had changed yet again! We were not now required as coach guides and should have gone to the other bus stop at 7:30am eek! No problem they said to the 28 of us that did not see the small notice that had gone up at 9pm the night before. Good News - We could get on the participants busses. Bad news only 20 of the 40 required turned up - big error, unfortunately half the morning participants were told the weren't going to go to Splash! After waiting for 2hr at the bus stands. Scouts and Leaders were not happy. One good thing that came out of the wait was that I found some Guides from Pune, India and I exchanged contact details with them. **Hint to 'real work' - now I definitely need to go back to Pune, I have a campfire to run!!**
Eventually got to Splash! At around 12:30pm with the afternoon participants Shifted a trailer, fixed a loo & weighed up a fencing job then it was time to come home.
Major issue tonight - The Real Ale bar ran dry, They are shifting 20 barrels a night and the new batch had not settled. The situation should be normal for tomorrow - phew!
