We started the evening with 8 members at Franky & Bennie's just over the road from the Bull. Then straight into the Bull where there were another 13 members making a grand total of 21, but alas Trev later departed with a couple of the female members and went clubing.
The rest of us then spent the rest of the evening chatting and drinking and dare I say it some of the ladies flirted with the staff!
On the whole we all had a wonderful evening, laughing and drinking." - MaximusRocketsupwithabang

Saturday, after a bracing walk on the beach and shopping we went bowling, lots of fun and laughter as some of us strutted our stuff knowing full well we would be aching the following day. Then on to an Italian restaurant for lovely grub.
Thanks to Linda (Pindy) for her kind hospitality and lovely Sunday lunch. Tis true the song 'There be a welcome in the hillside' from our lovely Welsh members." - Sophis2cat

Norfolk BBQ 16-September-2006 Submitted by
Admin_GThe weather was good for us. Cooking and eating seemed to go in many phases, but Penfolds Lamb just had to go on at exactly the right time, I don't think he planned for it to be Smoked Lamb!
Some one decided to have a Hairy Leg competition, so the wax virgins lined up with a very FAB pair of legs to show them how it should be done. Looks like someone was a bit confused when they got dressed that morning though.
The Naughty cupboard was put to a lot of use although Garfiled appears to have enjoyed his punishment !!!!! All in all a fun day and evening.
