I remember Walker snoring like a gorilla in the bunk opposite mine for
the *entire* first evening, and people eventually having to get him up
by throwing celery at him. Also, I remember asking Simon Happybunny if
he knew where Simon Happybunny was (He'd, er, taken his jumper off.).

Ah, Great Yarmouth. I remember Kamion's directions being rubbish. That
might be my sole memory of it, actually, although I also remember tales
of skinny dipping at 1am that I shudder to even contemplate. Needless to
say, I had nothing to do with that.

I think 5 was Milton Keynes - with Happybunny being, as far as I know,
still the only person to walk to a tEC. I remember driving around Milton
Keynes for hours, and having to ask at the police station to find out
where the youth hostel was. Also, there was some bellringing, bizarrely.
I've also been to two Durham meets - are they tECs? I lost track of the
numbers a long time ago, and stopped caring even further back.
