Sitting around chatting, reading, drinking and enjoying the sun, when it did appear between the rain squalls - 27/28 May 2006

No idea who won, but only one ball was lost; a couple of twisted ankles in the rabbit holes & a bit of 'cheating';)

... or Antiques perhaps. The usual pile of 'junk' was swiftly disposed of, including angels on a bench, freebie computer bags, broken cars, books galore & Iraqi prison baskets along with Heinz Baked Beans & Tomato Soup!

Beans & Tomato Soup!

The Annual BBQ Bash.. got off to a good start with a problem getting it lit!
