I really enjoyed the Second Weekend in September, that just like previous ELK events, once it has passed, soon is filed in the memory banks and planning moves on to ELK 2021, hopefully along the lines that we’ve got used to in previous years.
The ‘core’ members of our ELK party are already talking about a get together in the Netherlands, to visit our friends who run C&S nurseries, chat, eat and enjoy a drink or two. I did not get my annual ‘red cross parcel’ for the first time since my move to the UK in 1967 and I have not yet experienced what I can bring back legally since BREXIT kicked in. I have long run out of Zoute Drop (licorice), Zaanse Stroop Wavels and to pick up some Dutch junk food in the shape of ‘een broodje kroket’.
Here in Wiltshire, at Solstice Park, we celebrate that today in about 91 days, on 21 December, the days start getting longer again. In the mean time I’ll have to make do with playing back old presentations, starting with Chile 2001 this coming Sunday.
