Wake boarding trip
On Monday night we had a great trip to Box End park to do kneeboarding and wakeboard img on their cable tow. It is a great venue with very friendly staff by the way!
The night didn't start do well as the glorious sunshine that had been around all day immediately turned into showers and heavy rain as soon as we got into the minibuses! A little rain has never stood in the way of the men of talbot's before though and again we pressed on undaunted. Fortunately the water was also pretty warm.
As we arrived it became pretty obvious that John and Leonard had done plenty before - they were the stars, as shown below:
TWR was also not too far behind them to be fair!!!
Those of us who were a bit more novice started on knee boards and many then progressed up standing on the boards. It is a great activity as everyone who was there can say they developed and had a lot of goes. Having a cafe on site to be used once everyone needed warming up a bit was an added bonus too!

Volleyball Comp
On Sunday we had our first house volleyball competition. Five teams competed for the prize (a sweet and delicious one no less) by playing in a round robin in the afternoon sun. It was a glorious day and the choc ices for between game snacks went down well too. In the end it was team Classy, made up of Duncan, Nihat, Simon, Bob and Will.G who cam out as the victors. A video of some live action footage and the teams from the afternoon is below.
