Peterson to Mistral: clash of the SUSS lighting clans Saturday, 31 December 2016 I arrived at the Dump at half 10 after catching the early train to Horton. This proved to be in vain as Black Jewishman and co were not yet roused, though it was entertaining to see Dan Workman...

Trapdoor Pot Bottomed: the deepest sejourn of the SUSS flag Wednesday, 21 December 2016 After an extremely excellent past week of digging, infiltrating enemy lines to capture their treasured flag and an aborted Washfold trip due to a bout of Satans Uterus, we departed for Trapdoor on a very rainy morning...
