Being Friday the 21st day of July, 2017 ...

We have known for some time that the Guides are planning to have the kitchen refurbished during August.
The plans are on display ...

Dogsbody arrived to discover an invoice for use of the Guide Hall during July. He became concerned when he found that it did not include next week, (28th.)
Phone call ... "Oh, no, you can't use the hall next week. The builders start on Monday ... earlier than we anticipated."

Undeterred, he got on with the usual business of setting up tables, chairs, toilet-signs etc.
In anticipation that participants might like to prepare hot beverages, he boiled a kettle of water.

Paul brings his own tea-bag, but not a cup.
Paul likes to make tea ...

... and ALL the cupboards were bare!

Thus threatened with dehydration, as there were no drinking vessels whatsoever, Paul nobly occupied the chair of authority.

We commenced with stormy weather ...

I'm going away for a while.

This was closely followed by unseasonal leaf-fall ...

Soon I'll hear old winter's song.

Angela's friend, Anne, played the most delightful flute to accompany Paul ...

Paul's singing in French was passable!

Mick took us on an instrumental journey in company of ...

Angela contributed to the customary death toll ...

Number 8 is all flooded ...

Dogsbody was given to wobbly disposition and managed to get to the end of only one song ...

... and we'll sail with the tide ...

Les and Pam rescued him at the end of the evening, and we couldn't leave Debbie standing alone in the rain, could we?
It was an eventful journey home.
VERY many thanks to Les and Pam.

So, now, remember this ...
We will not be meeting next Friday, 28th.
During August we will be accommodated at Chidham Village Hall on Fridays: 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th.
Prompt start at 8.00pm, please.
