    Oh my goodness Nicola! You perfectly encapsulated the joy that was the Pow Wow 2021! What a morning! So many smiles, so much joy, so much merch, so many FANTASTIC volunteers, a beautiful course and just an amazing morning! Thank you to you and Danny for organising this and for all you have done and continue to do with the pod. We are a family that’s for sure 💛💛💛

    That was brilliant. I'm so gutted that some health issues meant I couldn't make it, but I really feel you've conveyed the morning. Loved the O leaping, the merch spotting, the competitive recording and many, many WMN interactions - feel like you've helped me put a lot of names to faces. Wonderful! Thanks.

    A lovely; but also difficult, watch since I'm trying my hardest not to feel like the kid that missed the school trip. I couldn't make it to Oaklands because I was at York parkrun, warming up for the Yorkshire Marathon. But my consolation prize was spotting you wrapped in tin foil, eating your breakfast in the rain, wearing your 5 hour pacer flag (sorry but my loo queue place was too precious for me to come and say hi!). Loving your work as always x

    A great record of the morning, thank you. What brilliant sportmanship from Al. Oaklands has one of the best finishes I know and your beautiful silhouette shot captured it perfectly.
    A *very* small thing, please could you slow down some of your camera scans? Particularly at the briefings they made me feel motion sick.
