Thanks everyone for a grand day out, lovely to see old faces and meet new faces! Turns out we got far more than we bargained for, with not just owls and birds of prey but cheetahs, tortoises, huskies, a camel and a very long tongued lizard.
Thanks especially to Katy for backstopping on the way out and Sam for doing it on the way back. I'm very sorry for my appalling navigation and wrong turns aplenty!
Everyone did amazingly, I was so surprised that it was the furthest some people had ridden as you were all so ace. And we had truly African weather too (or so reckon the eagle heights staff...)
Best owl moment: the barn owl in the flying display! I've never had an owl fly so close to my face before (and I say that in the best possible way)
Worst owl moment: that guy throwing a dead chick into my face
Top owl dresser: Mrs Socks and her wonderful owl socks, owl jumper and owl keyring! What an owl fan!
Prize for culinary excellence: slowest pub food EVER... what a fiasco, it's a veggie wrap, how can it take over an hour?!
