Summer Barbecue June 2003

Competition: if you can come up with a better verse than the one below (and that can't be too difficult!) the Webmistress will give you a Mars Bar. (Bite-size ... she's not that rich!)

	'Twas a hot sunny day in late June.... And in Clandon we see a balloon .... (or 3)
So we enter the gate..
	hoping not to be late ..
and straightway, o'er the garden, we swoon!
	Past the 'hollies' we step first of all
then the garden we sight, all enthrall(ed)
	There's Elaine, our hostess, dressed to clear any mess,
while her guests, HCS,	have a ball .....

Some	prefer

the	cool

shade	of

the	trees

	as the garden's strong heat
makes them wheeze (oh per- lease!))

others venture afar	to be nearer the bar
	and here's Richard, first bass, quite at ease!

David Morgan's in charge of the	meat (in the heat!)
His cool wife
	directs staff
in their feat (keep it neat!)
	But her gaze is distracted
the staff leave, so attracted
	to get seconds from Pete* (what a treat!) [poetic licence - hope you don't mind, Peter!)
"So, how good was the food?" - do we hear? Jenny's smile says it all, "it's top gear!"
	Heather adds a 'Merci!' (she speaks French, you can see!) Elaine, David, are you open next year?!!

THANK YOU, ELAINE AND DAVID, FOR HOSTING A WONDERFUL SOCIAL EVENT. WE REALLY ENJOYED OURSELVES!
