…Then On to the partying

Members were treated to a Smokey BBQ Brisket dinner and a terrific band including James Tudball on drums, which had us partying to the wee small hours. Thank you to Diana Chen for organizing the wonderful feast, (and all who helped with the setup and the pack up) and to Tuddy for the excellent musicians - with special guest appearance by our very own Air Guitarist Martin W esquire! Who worked the crowd, and the band, and assured us that deeds were to be done dirt cheep!
