Yellow Braces

Yellow Braces was unbelievably wonderfully fab. Will write more when I can sentence a string together :-)

My desk looks the above (a 9.5 on the Hamilton Scale), my brain is akin to the picture below, whilst even taking my body to the point where it is 85% coffee has not enabled me to think straight. (All worth it though).

Heartfelt thanks to a brilliant and creative team who delivered a residential weekend that will live long in the memories of all who took part. Shalom

It was 600% awesome on the McDonald scale! An honour and a priviledge to get alongside those young people.
and a challenge to beat Bicester in the percentage share of attendees next year!!

btw Is there a morning after yellow braces?!?

Hi Ian. A great first time experience at yellow braces. i wont forget the fab people I met - awesome. I have never been so grateful that my son was sick last night so I had to take the day off today and could catch up a little. I was so tired my husband got up with him - and that never happens!!! Nice tired though.

Thanks -maybe see you next year if not before ....

Mary, Sue,

Thanks, (and thanks too to your families for letting you go)

I've got most of the stuff into the loft, arranged for some of the lost property to go back. Most scarily, I've made some notes for 2010, eek!

If you took any photo's can you let me have them ... oh and any spontaneous quotes from your crew

Shalom

I agree it was a great weekend...soooo good...such fun.....putting aside the spiritual enrichment of the weekend and the wonderful young people and team...one of the most valuable lessons I learnt this weekend is ...'never underestimate the versatility of the humble hama bead'! Its awesome!

Yep, I could NEVER have predicted just how popular the Hama beads would be. Great to see the Hama "Bling" that was being sported as badges, necklaces etc

Thanks for being the craft master ....... and for spending a chunk of your weekend with an iron.

Let me know what craft stuff your missing eh and I'll try and find it
