Odd Odes - July 1992

BKF Bandits & AirBorn Assasins hit Sunny Scunny Arrival:sunday 1.00am It's OK. We're not the only ones to arrive this late! The chums of the sky Bums have just got here Thanks for the beer Mr morgan And so we did some erecting in the dark (our tents, that is) 11.00am - the campsite - Zzzzzzzzzzz (Tannoy) IT'S THE TEAM ROK IN 10 MINUTES! It's so early Jon, Gill. How do you do it? YERK! Look out! Jim Rowlands is checking all the tents for 2' of hosepipe! FIGHT! (Rok fight begins) - Sky knitting (the snail goes Parp!) 3 rounds later... Martin Croxton's Rok versus Groucho - Ping! "Sorry Mik!" Groucho buys it! Mik - we're so sorry 'Top Marx' - 2nd place - Time for a team beer!!! Euphoria sets in:- Drewski enters the Indian fighter competition, but has to sneak off quietly as he treads on his reel and breaks it before the fight begins! Oooops! "Hi Pat & Ron - Groucho's spars have bust - can you flog us some dowel? "No worries!" "Bless you" - Pat & Ron, the patron saints of kiteflyers enable 'Groucho' to enter the Scunthorpe Rok Open The hours pass:- Mad Eddy struts his stuff dressed in his soldier windsock. Then it's time for a short stroll to the pub. Quick! If we don't get there before the Sky Bums, there won't be any beer left! One hour later..... Aren't we there yet? Just keep walking, Mr Morgan is on our tail. Much, much later..... "Hey Barry, we know a shortcut back!" Suddenly the prestige of our Rokkaku Challenge placing (and the effects of the beer) hits Drewski the Samurai Bandit .......Kiteflying can be dangerous! "Toody, I feel a bit wobbly!" "Aaagh!" ... Drewski eats nettles!!!
