Pigroast at the Saturday cider shed - 29-08-2009


The long awaited pig roast finally happened. Although Nugget did not deliver his promised disco it was a very enjoyable evening. Vegetarians might want to look away.

Some last minute preparations and ready to go.

The pigroast. A few hours to go yet.





Spud, Aero and Dick.

9 gallons of cider ready in the shed.

The car park. Still early doors.

Jo Jo Binks and his best mate: stone

Spud showing Jo Jo Binks how to get the stone of the table.

The moment of truth. The 'coffin' is opened after more than 6 hours of sizzling.



That is one good looking pig!







Malcolm (ex-butcher) did the carving.

















the early signs of drinking home made cider.



Tarka had more than her fair share.



As expected; Spud was the first cider victim (it was still light!).

Mother and daughter. Clarkie and Lorna.

More people rolling in. From left to right: Kaz (legs only), Malcolm, Caroline, Ashley, Spud, Steve and Clarkie.







Stephanie.







Jerry Baker was superb on the guitar and vocals.

















Not completely gone, but we did eat a big dent in the pig.

Spud spent the night in the shed after everybody else had gone home.

What a great night!! Those who did not show up missed one hell of a party, with such a great atmosphere. Thanks to those who made it happen and the weather for staying fine! Same time next year?

Steph,

How was the mother of all hang-overs?
A whole bottle (1,5 litre?) of Martini on your own. Impressive!
