Fini - Day 5 (Will he do it? Reprise)

Traffic jams come in many sizes.  Baring in mind the scale of everything we've done this week - i.e. monster - it comes as no surprise that we were stuck in a monster of a jam.  However, this will not and does not mar the overall view of camp 2013; it is still being hailed as "totes amaze-balls" by one.

Many people asked me today about my big decision.  A girl of my size never says never, but I am going to polish the baton in the event of its likely passing on.  Whatever the weather, a 5th camp deserves marking, so I would like to thank all of my co-pilots down the years.

Roll of Honour:

Leakey
Burlton
Walmsley (2 tours)
Ford
Heyes

Sims / Brown (3 tours)
Correia (Mr)

Furthermore, I would pay tribute to those who have been in the role of delivering our services.  Special mentions to

Naomi
Phil
Andy & Rosie (and all the Essential Adventure gang)
Mark Briggs
Stu
Hannah and Roy

Finally in this section, thank you to Exmouth itself.  You have always welcomed us, looked after us, cared for us, and been glad to see us leave (I wouldn't blame you).  The rain may visit elsewhere in the world; Exmouth, to me, will always mean sunshine.

So, allow me to leave the final words to what I love the most: music.

The following lines should be sung to the tune of "King of Rock'n'roll" by the immortal Prefab Sprout.

All our crazy preteen angst

Doesn't stop us off'ring thanks

To those stars who filled our tanks

Completely

As we peer out on each morn

An adventure has been born

Opportunities galore

To tease me




Zigs zags, wet shoes

Beach barbecue

Exmouth!!




Gore Lane

Exmouth camp

Home of our dreams




Dream helps us recall

The joy of water sport

The beach, the scene, the hall

Delicious

Five and six painted the town

Daring to leap and surf (and drown)

How will we ever live it down?

Marvellous




Archers, rifles

Take aim

Gold spot!




Gore Lane

Exmouth camp

Home of our dreams





Now the coach has been, and back

All our soiled clothes unpacked

I'll remind you of the fact:

Amazing

How we took a group of teams

And exceeded all their dreams

Whilst we captured all their beams

Breathtaking




Low ropes old floats 

"This is heaven sir!"

Zip wire




Gore Lane

Exmouth camp

Home of our dreams  (repeat to fade into the sunlight)



Thank you all.
Bless you all.
That is all?
