Blazing sun and a gentle breeze – if you have to be on land, where better than to spend the afternoon in the company of friends, with plenty of free food plus drink at supermarket prices (because that’s where you probably bought it). It was a smaller crowd than usual which was a shame. I guess some people were fishing, which is the only allowable excuse. The raffle had great prizes, the burgers from Bransbury Butchers are legendary and Jim and Eleanor again produced a batch of awesome scones, this time with a bonus of home-made cherry jam!
Huge thanks as usual to our organising team on the ground: Jim, Eleanor, Steve, Dan, Dave, Tim plus all those that helped on the day, supported the event and those that bought their excuses with raffle tickets. Will our run of good weather for the BBQ continue next year? Maybe Premier marinas can be persuaded to invest in some corporate-branded sunshade umbrellas!
