After such a dry summer, the Gods decided to provide persistant rain for our annual BBQ at Malshanger, but It did not daunt our Social Committee who switched to the wet weather plan. Fifteen members turned up in the morning to transform the clubhouse so that when we arrived in the afternoon both the lounge and function room had been decorated with a Caribbean theme. Sixty members, suitably garlanded, had a wonderful afternoon as we participated in the various activities laid on by the Social Committee, before enjoying a wonderful BBQ served for us by Graham and Amanda. Caribbean Jerk Chicken, Jerk Burger, Pork Ribs followed by Caribbean Pavlova and Glazed Pineapple, what a feast. Throughout the afternoon we were well looked after with home made cocktails andby the rotating bar team. Thanks go to Wendy, the Social Committee and all those members who worked so hard to provide a memorable afternoon.
