MANNINGHAM GUESTS JUST MISSED A SOAKING
Brian Donovan again has been “on the job” inviting guests from surrounding businesses to dine and play bowls for a Christmas activity.
There were two functions booked for today. But it was not to be. The greens were soggy at noon so the first group stayed inside.
Thanks to Brian ” the cook” Donovan, Irene Garrett and her handmaidens, Sandra Dyer, Kay Bishop, Kay Golding and yours truely, and Geoff “the barman” Bandy.

Enjoying a lunch of stake, salads and berry pie.
The second group (a different business) cancelled due to the weather forecast. What a wise decision!!! Right on cue at 5pm the heavens opened. Because Peter Goodman and myself were there preparing for tomorrow’s sausage sizzle I took some photos of the downpour……Lyn.

Five minutes later, both greens flooded.
