Sue and I will also be heading for CostCo in the morning to stock up on our catering for the evening. As usual, there will be butties and perhaps pies and other tasty things.

Please let the guests get in there first! :)
Best regards

Form an orderly queue for the refreshments - tallest first seems a good idea!

I agree with Barry.

PENSIONERS FIRST.
They are used to forming orderly queues at the Post Office.

I think you'll find that Pensioner requested that the "TALLEST" people went first, not pensioners - put your specs on 8) 8) 8)

For the short-sighted (Dave), those less experienced in life like the youngest (Keasla), and for those who think we'd act as gentlemen when food is on the agenda (Tracey), I'll put it simply - FORM AN ORDERLY QUEUE BEHIND ME! :eat: :lol:

It was a very well attended battle and the result was an overall win by ADAPS. Whoever has the results sheet can hopefully post the actual figures soon, but as I recall ADAPS won the digital images, lost the prints, but overall won by a fair margin.

Catering seemed to go well, no fighting off Pensioner as it happens.

The trophy will now be engraved and the return battle will happen next year.

Well done Sue Shaw and Joan Tomlinson who made our image selection, and a good start to their new job as External Competition Secreataries. Many thanks to Keith for running the digital competition on the laptop.
Best regards

A good evenings entertainment all round.. Nice to see our collegues from Wigan attend. Even if they were a little premature with their overconfidences. Congratulations to Sue and Joan for guiding us to a well deserved victory.

Congrats to ADAPS :-d . Sorry I couldn't make it to eat my 'fair share' but my son has kindly passed on his 'man cold' and I needed nursing :oops:
