Bandcamp II summarised;

Nearly-fights with shouty-cockney-guy and his wife
Rubber stuff
Marching dressed as Pongo Chelsea Pensioners
A garden gnome taking a goose from behind
Train

Beer

Have I missed anything?

Don't forget Dirty Bertie, barbecue yumminess and heading straight to the bar post-marching for beer still dressed as extras for the remake of Zulu.

Mac was coming down by train

, and the train

track ran past the campsite. He was getting later and later, and people were wondering where he was. So whenever a train

went past, I said he was on that one, so we waved at him. Several hours later, he turned up, but by that time we were waving at every train

. And the tradition of seeing a train

, shouting TRAIN

and waving at it was born.

Train!

Best comedy moment would probably have to be Mac half in uniform with the sword & donkey...pure bandcamp gold. Although Axl giggling would come a close second, you big girlie girl you
