Again the weather was a deciding factor in the numbers attending, but true to BCC style the clouds parted as the barby was lit and 20 members wined and dined outside. As always the wind blew not only the heat, but the smoke and ash in our direction whilst the sun shone from the opposite. So by rotating our seating both sides could be roasted, coated and cured.   

Two actual new members joined us from Lapwing, namely Ray & Meira whose boat will be found on ‘E’ pontoon.

 It was noted however that one of the club rules was not fully observed at the barbeque. It has been a long standing club tradition that cooking is a male dominated activity (we stay warm whilst the women freeze), but this time a lone female was spotted venturing towards the fire. This indeed was fire fighting at its most intense. The Committee will ensure that this misdemeanour is not repeated!
