Dammit Keith, and i'd almost made myself forget about that. Still, at least most of those who participated in such shenanigans had the excuse of being completely drunk.
Apart from the person who kicked it all off!

23: When it comes to wood for the fires, ensure someone has a chainsaw
23.1: Ensure same person doesn't put a log on the fire that weighs about as much as he does.
23.2: Ensure the person using the chainsaw either has gloves on, or doesn't mind getting blisters on their knuckles.
24: Sand gets everywhere. Even into things you would swear blind were completely sealed and airtight.
25: Always bring more than 1 bottle of wine/pack of beer for the night before.
26: When you need to walk somewhere, avoid walking in soft sand. It makes things a fair bit harder.
27: There are 2 types of miles; English miles and Welsh miles.
27.1: 1 Welsh mile = 2 English miles; 1 mile for distance, 1 mile for the amount of hills you have to go up and down.
16. Pro soldiers don't leave kit behind
Was aimed at you Neil! (and everyone else who left misc stuff behind) but also said in the certain knowledge that Keith would throw it back in my face 'cos he is always telling me off for not having my rifle by my side at all times - I'm always leaving them propped against trees and promptly forgetting where I left them!
