Saturday 13th December 2008 - What a Day!

Wake up in the morning to the smell of freshly baked cakes. Round everyone up and off to church for the monthly table top sale. After donating some cakes for the event, we spend an hour going around chatting, drinking coffee and buying more things than we came in with????!!!
But there's no time to dwell. Race home and have some lunch, but wait, it's already time to throw on some thick socks and meet back at the church for the ice skating trip. Get there on time to discuss how bad we ll are at this then proceed to stumble around the rink for a couple of hours before Chris races around telling everyone it's time to leave for the next event!
Get home at 5:15 to change put icing on some more cakes (and a trip to the store for some double cream).
Off to church again, this time for the Christmas Party. I'm starving so find myself stood by the food grazing nonchalantly. Santa Ray came right on time for the kids all surrounded by a few great games. Oh look mat the time! 8:30 and we are all exhausted.
Slept like a log! (do logs sleep? maybe it used to be dog?)
Well done to all the organisers who put the time in to making everything go so well and it was announced this morning that the Table Top Sale made a record profit!

FAFF - Beetle Drive

A good night was had by all. Some people were definitely more lucky than others. While I moved a modest amount (by winning games) some people flew around the room like a tornado!



The person to blame (I mean thank) for the great idea!



All move!



What they should look like (above) and some of the monsters created (below)!





I think someone is telling me through gritted teeth, "I don't like my picture taken!"

FAFF - Beetle Drive - TONIGHT!!

FAFF - Walk and Picnic

What a beautiful day for a walk at Ashton Court with the dears, I mean deers.


The i scream man is always on hand.



Time to dust off the picnic set.

It was a lovely Saturday afternoon for a walk and picnic.

Barbecue

Despite the wind and rain we had a great time. Thank you to Simon for holding the umbrella while we cooked. A good chin wag and great food was had by all. See you next month at Ashton Court for a picnic. Hopefully we will have our one day of summer then.

FAFF - Pancakes and Quiz Night

What a great time we had. There were so many good things including a lovely heart shaped waffle maker. The lemon curd was brilliant, and at £4.50 a bottle it should be.














Look at those fantastic toppings! When was keep fit again?
















Oh no, kids making pancakes? They actually did very well!




















I think the rules were bent slightly and this was a fourth helping of sticky treats!

















The quiz was great fun and my team, 3 amigos, came a close second to the lady's table.
