Meeting of Finnish rainwearfriends

Post by Juppe »

Hi, we just had our traditional spring meeting this weekend. 15 participants this time, out of which 5 were first-timers. We had hired a cottage, were we have been also before. This time the lake was still frozen but the ice was very special. Even if it was up to 30 cm thick it could be broken by jumping on it. So we were playing in the icy water with either waders or Ocean watertight overalls on. The material was spectacular, I put one pic of it to the regnfrakker.dk gallery. There are a few of my personal pics also.
The ditches were filled with muddy water, the swamp was just melt and very very wet. Some of us were playing muddy plays, some were just wandering in the wet forest. We washed our cars and a hosed our muddy friends. In the evening we had ofcourse sauna and open fire to grill saucaces. Indoors people were dressed either in their favorite rainwear, latex or vinyl. A practical way to avoid taking off the cumbersome outfits when the nature called during the day was to use adult nappies and plastic pants.

We had 3 couples among the participants this time, the rest were singles. Both hetero and gay people were present.

This time we had one foreign guest, he was from Holland, poor fellow, we was stranded in Finland because of the ash cloud. Hopefully he has been able to continue his trip today.

Next meeting will be in the end of October. We have welcomed likeminded people mainly from Scandinavian countries (within a reasonable distance). If we use the same place also in the future, we would have accommondation capacity for max 20 participants.

There will be a few pics published out of the appr 800 pics and vids taken. But we have made a rule, that taking pictures during the meeting is free, each participant gets a copy of all pics, but they are only allowed to publish pics were they are alone. If other people appear in the pic, they should give their permission. That has proved to be a good rule, so the identity of even the most shy ones will not be revealed.
