Nic and Alison ove the years). We did have a bit of head start though on our first Melrose via the blogs which we had been writing ans reading for a few months beore the camp, so had some idea a bout people, as well as Muddlepuddle list postings. There was also a lot of metting up by some people last year. As well as the summer camp at Kessingland, some of met up at a Rentahostel gathering December, and there were other gatherings, plus individual family ‘blogbumps’ last year.

But the MP camps do seem to have become bit of gathering for a certain group of people, which I feel a little uncomfortable with for some vague reason.

I just imagined everyone had known each other for ages and ages. I really must make more effort to be less shy.
