Post-Camp Review
Alhamdulillaah, this was definitely a successful camp!
We need to make sure we do this once every year. I had a great time chilling with the bros (male bondage) and getting to one with nature (au naturale)
Credits :
- Shafters : for inspiring and organising the trip
- Reefi : for being the new GourmeT Chief and Pyro Maniac
- Ahmed : for providing Northern Entertainment and words of wisdom on family management
-
AbdulJabbar : for driving and for boldly trying to follow his anti-social trekking companions
- Shaz : for being well 'ard and showing us how NOT to buy a jacket. Also for tips on social interaction with Uphill Gardeners.
- Apu : for ... umm ... forgetting the butter
- Jazzy : for providing the Mirpuri 'huna' line, and NOT for providing us with milk and hummus
- Rifters : for being as Cantankerous as ever and setting the 5-peaks-in-a-day record
Some memorable quotes :
Shafiq: GI index = "Genetically Ingineered index" Exit = Eksit.
Shahzad the Hard : "Lets not climb that mountain"
Ahmed : "Gay homo.....l"
Jazzy : "I'm sure the milk and hummus aren't in my bag"
Some memorable moments:
When Rifter, Reefi and Shaz left Abdul Jabbar asleep on his own at the camp site
Ziad's hardcore trekking boots breaking apart.
Costs :
Ahmad : £25.58
Abdul Jubbar : £96.50 (Meat + Fuel + Toll charge)
Wifter : £26.25
Shafiq: £7
Shahzad: £9.31
