MrsC_772's barbecue, Farnborough - Sunday 10 June

[MrsC_772]

Hampsters, Wilties, Kenties and anyone else who fancies it ... (e.g. for last minute WDW planning)

I know we haven't had much barbecue weather so far this year, fingers crossed that June turns nicer. The weather gods have smiled on us the last 2 years :)

Sunday 10 June, eat around 1pm, my place in Farnborough. (PM me for address details if you don't have it).

Please let me know if you plan to attend so we know how much food and drink will be needed.

We plan to go ahead barring hurricanes and lightning - we can rig a tarpaulin over the patio to provide some shelter if it rains.

Bring swimsuit and towel if you want to wallow in the hot tub.

If anyone coming from further afield wants to crash out overnight Sunday night , we have floorspace, spare bed, airbed (but bear in mind we'll both be working on the Monday so we'll have to throw you out about 8.30 am!)

I might be persuaded to make more white chocolate icecream ...

[uksurfer]

Yes please, can I bring a little person with me?
Char would like to come to
If rally comes we could use the opportunity to pass bags into the WDW van?

[MrsC_772]

Char's not that little! :)

But if you mean your daughter, that should be fine - I'm guessing you won't be coming on the Monster this time.

Londoners welcome? If not, as I'm on Surrey borders (and we used to be part of Surrey until a few decades ago), maybe I could pass for a Surreyite? :idea:

[Saint aka ML]

Well proper Londoners welcome? I would like to go and envy those going to WDW.

[MrsC_772]

Londoners welcome - whether from bits of London previously in Surrey or London proper!

[Rally]

Count me in please and I may be brave and get in the tub thiis time round, you have been warned. Medicinal purposes of course. :D

[bex]

Me too, providing uni is done and dusted.

[S4Rs MacK]

Mrs C,
I would like to come too. I have requested the Mon off work, so I have the option of staying over. But will confirm closer to the time once the time is granted.
:-)

[chris yeatman]

please put my name on the list should be able to make it this year.

[Gordon H]

Hopefully should be able to make it - the white choc ice cream swung it for me.

[Altaian]

If WDW preparation is on schedule I could be tempted with this. Great idea MrsC. :woot:

May need to be in the car though if the 'Fighter's mid being prep'd for touring...

If anyone's still at the planning stage though for WDW - there may be some panic... :on:

[MrsC_772]

The white chocolate ice cream is churning away in the kitchen at this very moment ...:spin:

Oooh you temptress!!!!!

[scrapps]

i will check the calendar and if Heather and i are free we will pop over.

[scrapps]

I will be able to pop along but Heather is working a 10 day stint so will not be able to come.

[Char]

Hi

May have to drop out due to work commitments - hope will still be OK but will have to see

[JerryT]

Hopefully still on for this... Fingers crossed the weather shines, or at least stays dry... can you pm me your address?

[Rally]

I'm afraid to say that now I have broken my leg, I cannot get my bike boots on so am unable to ride the bike as yet. I have also been told to limit the driving to as little as possible. I therefore will have to say sorry, but I won't be there. :thumbsdown:

[S4Rs MacK]

Eleanor,
Apologies for the short notice but have been double booked by the long haired general, so i will have to decline your kind invitation.
Its my brother in laws 50th tomorrow and the family have decided to lay on a party this weekend Sat/Sun.
Sorry again but will see you in Italy.
Deano.

[MrsC_772]

Thanks for the updates folks.

Currently trying to decide (given forecast of rain) whether we'd be better to barbecue or cook a vat or chili or curry to eat indoors!

[Saint aka ML]

Well sadly very doubtful I will be able to make it due to new job, need to move, no cash, bad weather, no time pick one. This month is interesting...

Sadly count me out.

[MrsC_772]

In the great British bank holiday "we're going to have fun regardless of the weather" spirit, we're still planning to barbecue on Sunday. :)

Forecast implies it might rain, but there shouldn't be too much wind so we should be ok to cook. We'll rig up the tarpaulin over the grape vine trellis as a giant umbrella just in case :idea: We have barbecued very successfully under such conditions before.

I'm not going to be able to eat all the white choc icecream myself (and still hope to fit into my leathers!) so hope to see lots of you on Sunday lunchtime

[bex]

I'm afraid I'll have to back out it if its throwing it down, no car option here.

[JerryT]

Well, we're still intending to come, even if we have to come on 4 wheels...

White choc ice cream...

Mmnn, Nom Nom Nom. :biggrin:

[MrsC_772]

Weather still dry here, pork joints on the barbecue looking good ...

[JerryT]

Excellent BBQ Eleanor & Andy,

Delicious :piglet: !!

Got back all fine, but properly raining down here in the New Forest whan we got back. Nicky was quite glad we took the car in the end!

Sorry there weren't more others from UKMOC, but it meant we had the choclate ice cream to ourselves! :)

Thanks again!


Jerry & Nicky

[MrsC_772]

Thanks for coming - glad you also had a good afternoon. (The cats seemed to appreciate your company as well).

It's drizzling here now - we were lucky with the weather earlier.

Enjoy roast pork sandwiches for the rest of the week - we will too!

[MsH]

So sorry I missed it - no good reason, just poor excuses. Sorry. (I came online too late - still learning about site - looking for next Hants meet - and found this - sorry, would have come had I been on here 24 hours sooner)
