title Bromestock Three, Brome, Suffolk - 18th August 2007 intro It's about half way, calendar-wise, between Nosher's 40th and Isobel's 30th, and in a spirit of a couple of previous parties which came to be known as "Bromestock", it's decided to hold number three. A shed is purchased in order to clear out the landing; a real festival-style portable toilet is hired and a vintage Atari and VIC-20 are set up for a bit of retro gaming fun; camping is arranged and a couple of spare tents are set up and barley-straw bales are bought in courtesy of The Boy Phil and Wavy. However, it's getting a bit tense as, apart from the Brussels massive who'd arrive in the morning, no-one had turned up by 7pm. Luckily though, there was a big influx shortly after, and thus the barbeque was fired up to feed the thirty-or-so people, with a good mix from Brome, Cambridge and Belgium. imgp8590 At Taptu, Stef hauls out a heap of hard drives imgp8594 A big stash of 500GB hard disks imgp8603 Sophie's up a tree again imgp8612 Sophie looks out imgp8626 The new shed arrives imgp8627 Isobel helps out with power tools imgp8630 The shed goes up imgp8642 The shed is virtually complete imgp9215 Party beer imgp9217 The pin is tapped and foams away imgp9220 Wavy and The Boy Phil arrive with bales imgp9221 Isobel watches as Natan plays piano imgp9222 People hang around on the bales and eat barbeque imgp9227 Ninja M, Paul, Wavy and The Boy Phil imgp9229 Hani does a "The Thinker" imgp9230 Isntruments are set up imgp9231 Marc and Suey in the kitchen imgp9232 Isobel in the kitchen imgp9233 Paul, Jen and Simon imgp9234 Some of the Cambridge massive imgp9235 The gazebo in the garden imgp9236 The front garden resembles a car park imgp9237 Wavy scopes the food out imgp9238 Cakes from Brussels are brought out imgp9242 People queue up for cake imgp9245 Isobel plays a bit of piano imgp9249 Jules hands out cake, as Pieter cuts slices imgp9255 Carmen and Suey due the Hula Hoop thing imgp9258 Marc looks through photos imgp9260 Marc finds some embarassing photos imgp9265 DH appears, as more photos are looked at imgp9268 On the stairs imgp9271 Nosher and the nerd tee-shirt imgp9279 Janet and James imgp9286 Candles in the night imgp9293 Anne plays PacMan on a VIC-20 imgp9300 Hani holds a Sinclair ZX Spectrum imgp9302 The Boy Phil has a bit of a kip imgp9308 Bill takes a photo of Marc's arse imgp9309 The next morning, the car park is quieter imgp9310 Matt's van in the morning imgp9311 The remains of the "stage" imgp9312 What's left of the bales imgp9313 A pile of empty bottles imgp9315 Matt's van, and the Portaloo imgp9316 The hall floor is covered in straw imgp9318 A demolished kitchen imgp9320 Isobel and a sleepy Natan imgp9322 Isobel and the Brussels Boys imgp9325 Pieter does sausages for breakfast imgp9327 Pieter has a bit of a flambé moment imgp9328 Pieter washes up imgp9335 Breakfast on the bales imgp9337 Garden gazebos imgp9339 Pieter hurls the boys around imgp9346 The boys, in descending order of age
