Playdays, a new experience for everyone from CUK as this was the pilot event and judging by the advertising and details, destined to be a success.

The day begun with a meeting at Birch Services on the M62 where spirits were high despite the dodgy looking clouds lingering overhead. We set off on our merry way, destined for Clifton Moor Retail Park to meet our Yorkshire-bred members.

The usual antics were displayed on the motorway (safely!) to make the journey a little more interesting including some arse-out action and "full-motion" photographs.

Clifton Moor Retail Park, a quiet retreat for our more "relaxed" families to enjoy a nice, quiet shopping spree without the banter of youths and hooligans….. until WE arrived! Whilst looking for beer and munchies we were tailed by numerous security guards who didn't seem to realise that it's cheaper to shout between the aisles to each other than use our mobiles.

Their poor attempts at pretending to check the stock on the shelves gave us plenty of amusement. Once we were filled with crisps, milkshake and Burger King we set off for York Dragway, which would be our "looney-bin" for the weekend.

After taking about 2 hours to put up the CUK tent in the pitch black, everyone was well on their way to having an excellent time. Fireworks were flying, people were singing and shouting, music was blasting and the atmosphere was superb (thanks to everyone singing along to "Gold" by Spandau Ballet at the top of their lungs, hehehe).
