The day started with a very smooth crossing
across the Irish Sea. No fatalities occurred; all was good. The boys took the
opportunity to play on their gadgets and indulge in their piles of sweets. We
were escorted to the hotel by the friendly people from St Thomas’, then unpacked
and had the ever-familiar briefing from Mr Catterall. Most of the boys were driven
in the minibus to Groudle Glen, where we went for a refreshing coastal walk and
saw the remnants of a small zoo. On the walk back, we found a little shelter
where we spontaneously sang some campfire songs. A few of the boys got the
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to visit J.C.'s luxurious seafront bachelor pad
where they picked up Mr Catterall's second car, Gloria. After the campfire songs,
we boarded a tram back to Douglas. We then, after cleaning our hands with the
'squirty stuff', tucked into our delicious three course meal. After tea, we got
the minibus to St Thomas' Church and practiced processing before walking back
along the promenade to the hotel. We had some pre-bedtime biscuits and juice,
and almost everyone used the hotel's free wifi. We then went to bed.
