Sunday was a bit of an effort after a wonderful Saturday night out at a terrific Indian restaurant, followed by drinkies in our hotel room - when somehow with the help of Roy & Marilyn we managed to finish off 2 whole bottles of rather nice gin! Step 1:- "Listen very carefully..." ![]() ![]() Minkey did his best to be helpful.... Jacqui had a great time! ![]() ![]() How many engineers does it take to fix a Pfaff with what turned out to be a simple fault? ![]() Pizza for lunch! ![]() Then back to work! ![]() ![]() People were full of 'helpful' advice... ![]() It was not at all clear what Dicky was doing... when asked, he just said "Stuffing!" ![]() Saturday evening was "Gin Tasting Night" for the GOG Gin Tasting Panel ![]() We just had to finish that bottle, so Dicky could have it for "upcycling" Saturday night was "Curry Night" for most of us at the excellent New Delhi Indian Restaurant ![]() ![]() Everybody Welcome - No Invitation Required! and so back to the Travelodge for more extensive Gin Tasting... all went well until there was a spillage of the precious stuff - QUICK - Emergency Action! ![]() ![]() Came the dawn.... and we somehow made it back to the Dockle for another FEB and to watch Sandra open her GOG Birthday present! ![]() ![]() and back to work again... ![]() ![]() Finally... ![]() Sincere thanks to the kind souls who organised pizza for lunch on Saturday (with yummy tomatoes & lettuce) and organised curry for lunch on Sunday - much appreciated! and to Helen & Charlie for sorting out the Indian menu selections & dealing with the complex bill! and thanks to Dave & Janet Robinson for organising the hot drinks & biccies Delighted that Bob Cruikshanks and Karl & Sara Longbottom could drop in for a quick visit Glad to see Kevin Griffiths back on his feet after serious illness Hope to see you all again at the Jollyup!
