Being the 2nd of September, 2011 ...

In the chair: Dogsbody.
Present: 17 other friendly people including a new face: Laura's friend, Ian.
Ian came armed with a heavy-metal instrument that looked a bit like this:







It was so heavy that Lynda had difficulty lifting it!













Absentees: Several.
Apologies: None!

Any other business:
Oh, yes: these were the 'doings' ...

Perhaps the most memorable chorus came from Mike and is worthy of documentation here:

(Loudon Wainwright III)

However, it is inappropriate to single out any individuals ...
You were all good!

Now, don't forget ...
Don't come next week (9th) because we won't be there!
