They came from all directions, all over the Coast, to On Yer Bike/Little Earth Model Village to see the village and have a barbeque meal. Most of the food was donated, by New World Supermarket and other anons.
The weather, for a largely outdoor event, was nothing short of miraculous. After 2 days of heavy, steady rain - including when Warren and his crew were all day cooking the pig on a spit over a wood-fire, it stopped raining about 1/2 an hour before they were due to arrive. The sun even broke through.
It was a great event and a huge success, thanks to everyone who helped. I didn't get any dinner though! The queues were too long.
Everyone there got a trip on the Haglund. Thanks Michael!
There was even a bus-load came down from Westport, thanks to a cheap deal by Cunningham's Coaches.
Each family was supposed to bring a Gnome for Gnomeland. Not everyone did, but the ones we got were great. Gnomeland's population has grown.
