ChrisJ Posted August 21, 2021 Report Share Posted August 21, 2021 I'll be sending Dave & Megan's address out via a PM on Wed/Thu, so if you haven't already done so, add your name to the list if you are coming. Please indicate if you are staying over - still not sure for me yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM Sparky Posted August 21, 2021 Gold FFM Report Share Posted August 21, 2021 We won't be staying over as we have a Sunday engagement. Naturally, I'm selflessly doing my share of the driving on the way there. 1 British Fart to Florida, Nude to New York, Dunce to Denmark, Numpty to Newfoundland. And Shitfaced Silly Sod to Sweden.

Gold FFM Chillidoggy Posted August 21, 2021 Gold FFM Report Share Posted August 21, 2021 I might have been tempted to come along, however the cloakroom refurb has grown legs to the point where I’m now wishing I’d never started, and I’m committed to finish the effing thing ASAP. But in any case, I suspect wherever the bbq is being held might just be a very long way from Margate, and thus I hope everyone has a great time. Plus, you’ll get to see @Blingand his latest red acquisition! Margate Exotics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Freeman Posted August 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Hi All, so we are pretty well set for the weekend, new BBQ has been built, Marque is going up tomorrow. We have 1 large tent and 2 smaller tents for those who want to stay over in a tent, ~SPARKY you will miss breakfast BBQ. We will, just to reiterate supply beer, wine, some spirits and soft drinks, we will also have a selection of meats, ie burgers, sausages, steaks etc But if you want to bring a special meat and or you drink a lot, then please bring your own. Really looking forward to the weekend, weather should be good (hopefully). Thanks chris for sending the address by pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM Bling Posted August 23, 2021 Gold FFM Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 That is very kind of you @Dave Freeman I will bring some Greek fare to put on the barbecue and share, bastourma (spicy Greek sausage) and loukanika (village sausages made with wine). Both these are great sliced into smaller pieces and eaten with lemon as a snack accompaniment to beer/lager. I will also bring some seftalies (minced pork with fresh herbs). 1 Long time Lotus admirer, recent owner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold FFM Bling Posted August 27, 2021 Gold FFM Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 Hi @Dave Freeman, I previously asked about bringing a dog tomorrow.
