Meet in the Temple Street Social from 5.30pm
A good session had by all. Simbers and Di had been out all afternoon meeting up with Tone, Jo , Phil and Ian early doors in the TSS. Jan and Ray arrived at 6 just after Di had left for being too bladdered to stay out. Phil was working all night so was on the 'tea' a rare first for a Chap session. Dave completed the merry band in the TSS. Simbers struggled for pace so bailed out also at 7.00pm, he did however consent to Ian (of Dorridge dozers fame) having a pass out till later!!. The rest of us got stuck in to some serious ale consumption. Plenty of banter with good music played by the DJ (who was a Villa fan). There was also a bit of dancing to the old chap anthem the Whole of the moon by the Waterboys.
The chaps were also looking forward to future events, Xmas do's, DTW10 and 50th birthday parties.
Note to the Colonel, Ian stayed out till gone 11.00pm with the rest of the chaps & chapesses getting taxis home around midnight. A real enjoyable evening with no route marches, good music & good company.
