In the afternoon we stocked on bad provisions and then headed to Whitby Town FC for the bi-annual football game between Real Gothic FC and Athletico Gazette. Sadly it was a disaster for the goth side with a shocking 0 - 6 scoreline. Match commentary was once again provided on Twitter courtesy of yours truly. On the plus side the event did manage to raise £1600 for the nominated charities: SOS Children's Villages, The Willow Foundation and the local Scarborough and Ryedale Mountain Rescue Team! The Sisters Of Real did win their penalty shoot out against the Gazette Ladies though so it wasn't all bad in football terms.
Here's a few pics
As is always the case it was great entertainment and all for worthy causes. It was nice to see the club house rammed like it used to be as crowds had been dipping a bit of late. Hopefully this is the return to good support.

After the game it was back to the apartment to start packing and have some food. I always hate Sunday at WGW as it means it is almost time to go home again. Sadly, we have to leave early tomorrow so we were unable to have one last hurrah out on the town. Wine, blogging, vodka was then followed by an overwhelming bout of tiredness!
It has been a pretty good WGW and has certainly been great to get away for a few days. It's also nice to see that the numbers are picking up again at The Spa events so hopefully this will mean that it's once again becoming about the bands and the music.
Roll on the April event!
