Many thanks to those who helped, including, but not limited to: Trond, John and Simeon for putting up with us; Diana (who organised the jelly wrestling) and the other wrestlers; Tony for transport services; Mary Anne and Del for jelly shooters; Troy for marshalling a cleanup; Dillon for his galactic empire game; Andrew, Erin, Tim, Mike, Vernon and Zane for equipment; Kirk and Hamish for emergency toilet access; Bastian and Jo for recyclables disposal; anyone else who provided CDs, helped clean up or threw a few dollars into the hat for plumbing; and all the people who not only spent big at the slave auction, but actually paid up afterwards. John had a great time spending all your money.
A few pictures have blurry patches due to sunbstances such as jelly reaching the lens...c'est la vie.
