Dolmen Grove Beltane Spirit Of Rebirth camp - day 3

Today was less busy than the previous two had been. There was a spate of gathering up the last of the pledges for the Dolmen Grove Land Fund collection which involved Phil Weldon;s back, sack and crack, Baz & Taloch in pink onesies and a nodding Steve Booth.

I had a rude awakening to the sight of Steve Booth's arse coming though the fly sheet wearing nothing but fishnets and knickers! When he looked a bit more respectable I did manage to grab a bizarre Basic Instinct shot

With the majority of the money collected it was time to prepare for the great unveiling. Here's the gruesome threesome just before we marched them into the main tent. Baz had the largest onesie that Maxine could find but it wasn't quite big enough and ended up splitting his difference!

...and this was what it was all about. Phil Weldon agreed to have his back, sack and crack waxed and Baz Cilia and Taloch Jameson donned pink onesies to sing a song. This raised £500 for the Land Fund. On top of that Steve Booth raised an additional £200 to wear a ceremonial kilt, wig and make up and do his nodding Boothy routine. Here it all is:


Following the fun and games Toni, Mel, Steve and I went back to Steve's flat to have a shower. It felt so good! After some tea and a good old chinwag we took Mel and Steve out for a meal at the The Ship Inn.

There was more rain which culminated in a lovely rainbow and a higher and choppier river.

Entertainment for the night was Pixie "Open Mike" Night

Taloch got up to do an acoustic version of The Piper Of Souls:


Next up were Oaken and Lee with some rhythmic joy

Linda Moonbow treated us to a lovely little ditty

Mr & Mrs Sparrow took to the stage next and wowed us all

Spriggan Mist put in another appearance with an awesome version of "Shaking A Deadman's Hand"


Kayleigh and Taloch were up next with acoustic and pipes

After the entertainment the mists started to roll in:

As the night came in another fire was built and it was time to drink, chat and sing once again

Taloch entertained us with some acoustic renditions of songs by The Dolmen. Please enjoy these video of him singing along at the fire.
A Fisherman's Song


Parting Glass


Torn


The Devil's Table


Loch Lomond


Ounana


There was lots more singing and lots more drinking before it was time to call it a night at silly o'clock.
