Sandhaven here we come................ We had every intention of heading for the 3rd Reckless Rally early afternoon get the tents up and have a few beers, well it pished doon in Inverurie, flashing lights and rumblie bangie thingies in the sky ! Bugger it we would have a coffee and a fag and wait for it to go past, an hour later...........still raining. Feck it let's go phoned Bob and he to was running late so we agreed to meet in Ellon, by the time we got there we were soaked but the sky looked clear in the direction of Sandhaven. Bob roared in to town we watter rinnen oot o his arse ! but hay we no care cos beer was not far away. |

Bob N Buddha have a beer after getting the tents up. Arrived in Sandhaven to a warm wind and sunshine, first things first Bob got the beers out and we started to get the tents up. Mission accomplished we had another beer! On opening the panniers I found one of them swimming in water ( it was the one that Buddha had put his stuff in ) I forgot I had a bag of ice for Dr Smirnoff in the same one (oops!!) |

Bob and Nige get there point across !!
Angela and Looby arrived later with the second wave of beers and Dr Smirnoff, we had one or two more (well quite a few accily) and had a wander round to talk to old friends we only see at rallys. A BIG thanks to the young lad that pumped up our air beds, it was appreciated. We headed up to the hall to have a lookie round and sign in.The Friday night band was Co Jo Mary. |

Nige and Womble FILL the dance floor ! The band kicked off and Womble and Nige were the first to fill the dance floor. There was a steady flow of Dr Smirnoff and beer and a good night was had by all. Bob was pole dancing again ( I think he needs help) see pic on F3 page. After closing time we headed for the food van and back to the tents, a few more voddies and headed for the sleeping bag. |

Tit's oot ! ( I can see three !!! ) Saturday morning was with us far to quick and I was gagging for a coffee, headed for the portaloo and discoverd the food van was there with coffee bacon sasage and egg bring it on !! wanderd back to the crew and we spent the next few hours wandering back and forth for coffee and tea. Mandy was working Friday night but was going to join us on Saturday, she rang to say she was feeling a bit off and might be down late afternoon. As we were all recovering and no one felt like going anywhere, I headed back to Inverurie to see how she was. As the afternoon wore on the colour came back to her lovely rosie cheeks and we headed up to Sandhaven on the Divvie as she didn't feel up to taking her own bike.

Looby, Mandy and Angela try to look sober for the camera. We got back about supper time and the F3 crew were in the pub across from the tents with some of the Caramel Starfish crew and Trevor the Stonehaven Kiwi. We had a few drinks with everyone and headed up to the hall, MAC Sabbeth were headlining Saturday and did two sets, one a Black Sabbeth tribute, and the other a normal rally band. Dr Smirnoff was back in full flow along with the beers, but Bob was suffering a touch and looking a bit white aboot the gills.

Cheep bar, good company, good bands. what more could you ask for ? Half way through the evening the raffels were on the go and Bob was nowhere to be seen, (the lightweight was back in his tent snoring his heed aff.) anyhoo back to the raffels......our table ended up with a bottle o malt a neck warmer, chain loob, t-shirt and Mandy won a tool roll for the 535. ( we have never won anything before hence the excitement) More drink more tunes and another good night was had by all. ( as you can see by the indepth report I canna minde mutch !!)
