Joshua's End of Season Rugby Presentation & Cup Final

A busy weekend for Joshua with his rugby. Saturday he had his BeeFest day which is a fun day where the annual presentations are made. All of the team were awarded with a medal and then special awards for Player player, Managers player and Player of the Season. The team have had a fantastic season finishing 3rd in the league and then making it to the cup final which was played today. Unfortunately they game up short in the cup final and were beater, but still an achievement to make it that far. Now it is a few weeks off before starting pre-season ready for starting U16's in the summer.

Holly enjoyed the BeeFest and played some Crazy Golf and some bean bag throwing. She also enjoyed some of the nice cakes which were available to buy. I managed to catch up with an old work colleague I bumped in to which was really nice. 

As we arrived at the BeeFest late we struggled to get a parking space and ended up in the overflow carpark on the field. The field was surprisingly dry given all the rain we have had except for one boggy area right be the exit. As we were leaving I was following some women in a Fiesta out of the field and as we approached the boggy bit we had plenty of momentum to get through. That was until she got through the mud and thought it would be a good idea to stop dead leaving me bogged down in the mud. We then spent 15 mins getting very muddy trying to push the car and wedge stuff under the tyres only to dig it in dipper. Finally a chap in a 4x4 BMW came along and with some old nylon rope we found under a tree we managed to get a tow out. In the time this all happened more cars were starting to get bogged down behind me. I bet it was chaos later in the day as there were still some 30-40 cars on the field!

Once the presentation was out of the way Holly enjoyed some crazy golf.

How appropriate to have a snooker hole when the World Champs is currently on.

More crazy golf with Holly.
