ULSA

My first CHECC was snow CHECC
I did no caving, going hiking instead
Dressed as a smurf, all bundled up
The only sign my blue face and a hat on my head!

This CHECC was wet CHECC
Down in Dolygaer
ULSA packed the club tent
Zips rusted, we were wary how it'd fare

We were unsure about caving
For outside was quite dystopian
But in the wet they went caving
Our fresher and Bristolian

The rain kept pouring
Our tents soon flooded
It left everything spick and span
Cleaning all that was mudded

Outside was dire, but inside alive
Chaotic dancing, brutal wrestling
Sharing old gossip
Watching it forming

Saturday evening, things got wetter
Sunday morning, all were indoors
Taking refuge from our swampy tents
Packed like sardines on the floors

Breakfast made us all better
The clean up was hectic, how we jostled
But we got things packed
Off we went in our cars, all quite tussled

This CHECC was wet CHECC
Ups and downs, it must be said
But I can say I had fun
Next time let's hope we don't end up in a beck!
