Fish n Chips x 12 please!

Fish n Chips x 12 please!

Hi there.

Thanks for popping in.

Right. Well that’s it. All done.

Just need the cupcakes tomorrow morning, (which I’m happy to report are all made – all 400!!)

and THE VISITORS!!!

 

So the ever ready Clarity Set-up Crew came back to ours for fish and chips…

and deeeeeelicious it was too. You cannot beat good fish n chips mixed with good company.

See Maria up the back? And Sam, Tina and Dee?

Then there’s Paul Linda & Rob Williams. And on the naughty table, there’s Becca, Simon and Dave.

The other lads went home. I reckon they had had enough by 7 this evening!

 

Right. That’s it. We can’t do more. We have put in the action, but we cannot control the outcome, so now I can relax.

We can hope the weather is lovely, we can hope that folks come and enjoy their day, and we have in fact gone to great lengths to put on a great 2 days. But there are no guarantees.

Did I mention we’ve got an EVERY-TICKET-WINS-TOMBOLA too?

Safe trip down if you’re coming.

And if you suddenly decide you DO want to join us, you can pay on the door. Tell you what – the cupcakes alone are worth the trip!! Errr….. one each please!!!

Love & Hugs,

Barb

  1. Hi Barb,
    You’re right, you can’t beat good fish n chips! Must say, you all look very happy. I really do hope that everything goes so well ( which it will) and that everybody has a fabulous time( which I know they will). Safe journey to everyone – I’m very jealous (& not just because of those fabulous cupcakes!). Love and hugs, Alison xxx

    1. Hi bloggy friends,
      Had a better day today. Taken it steady and easy after a dreadful night when I didn’t dare move in bed! Had to go to drs today for medication review and he really put my mind at ease thankfully. Saw the District Nurse when I was there and bless her, she thought I’d come because something had gone wrong! She was really relieved when I told her why I was there!! Hope you’ve all had a good day too. Diane ,hope your cakes are done now. Sorry to hear that you aren’t going to make the Open Days this year and you too Gilly – will miss out get together. I’m actually going to try to get to Linda Page’s Groovi class this Sunday even if I just go for half a day. Sending love and hugs to you all, Alison xxxx

      1. Hi Alison – sorry to hear that you had such a bad night. I hope that the new meds will help you to get a better night’s sleep tonight. I will really miss getting together this year too. Be careful not to push yourself too much. Love and hugs, Gilly xxx

        1. Hope you have a better nights sleep tonight Alison and your new meds help with the pain relief. I made another cake today, just one more to go then I can breath easy until next Thursday when I have to assemble them! Sending hugs xxx

  2. Can’t wait. Really looking forward to it. Shopping list complete but will probably buy more. Thank you Barb, Dave and Co. Hope you all enjoy the next couple of days as much as we punters will. Xxx

  3. Have an amazing couple of days guys…….to all who have contributed in setting up the event…you KNOW it’s worth it!! Just wish I could be there xxx

  4. Hoping that I will get to you on Saturday (I have my ticket) but I have my son’s three daughter’s (12, 9 and 6) overnight on Friday. My son-n-law was going to pick me up at 9 am and bring me over, but decided that wouldn’t work, as if I was up and getting ready, the girls wouldn’t want to wait for their Dad to pick them and give them brekkie, particularly as it is always pancakes for breakfast if they stay over. So am hoping that I can persuade my son to bring me over later, drop me off and find something to do with the girls for a while. At least I will have a little “Clarity” fix even if it isn’t for the whole day.
    Hugs to all the gang – do hope I get to see you all xx Mags
