Stag Do Part 2

Guy proves that paintballing hurts. Still at least he was in the game long enough to get shot, unlike Chris. But I bet he didn't have to stop on the way home to buy frozen veg to put on his cut and lumpy head like Ricky did.

Guy in a field but the sun has gone in. It almost appears that he has his own personal black cloud.


James in a field, possibly looking a bit camp.



Dave is drunk. Guy is bald. Paul makes a serious point to Alan who responds by sticking his tongue out.
Man in the background finds the blinding light deafening. The freak.
Some stranger. i'm pretty certain it isn't Eddie the Eagle Edwards though.

Too funny to ignore.

Ricky and Geordie conspire to set up Aaron for a fall in another round of Ring of Fire. Aaron is clueless to their scam. Everyone else is just clueless.

Alan gets off with things lightly. though the walking sideways was tricky.


The events of the day take their toll on Adam as he supports himself on a tripod. he also has a suspicious looking bron mark on his botty. Guy ignores him. Dave looks on but refuses to help.

What a nice view.

Adam becomes a bit camera shy.
The view gets a thumbs up from James.

Little did Guy know that Adam was about to ram him hard up the rear.

Colin the instructor gets annoyed as he realises he's lost his bike.


Ready, Steady...
Let's quad

Quad bike man shows off about how big something is. The boys are unimpressed.

Greystoke Castle - they do Quad biking here.

Confusion, apathy and hangovers win out.


Ricky takes defeat in the raft race badly and chins Chris.

Beautiful scenery. Shame about the foreground.

Ah! Raft building. What better way to get over a hangover than go mucking about on the lake?

While most people slept soundly in their beds - some people struggled to find their way home.

Man with beard.
Man with beard.

I believe we may have drunk some of this.

Can anyone tell me why, with my sweating habit, I have still got my coat on?


Ricky goes wild.
Alan tops up a strangers glass with snot that has run down his arm and is dripping from his elbow.
A room full of strangers, mostly men. excellent


Ricky cools himself down by wiping his head with a glass, the weirdo. Meanwhile, Paul's head is dragged towards the floor by the elbow he seems to be growning out of it.

Can anyone else see the sweat coming through the back of Paul's t-shirt? James, Guy, Dave and Adam don't look on in varying stages of happiness.

Ooooo! Concentrate...
