Dave's 58th

From http://bvetsfootballgroup.blogspot.com/

A couple of late cancellations (CK & Sharpy) plus a couple of latecomers (Messrs Moir & MacIndoe) meant that we only had 12 of us in the team photo at Strikers:


The match went well - it was nip and tuck all the way, but the birthday boy eventually emerged on the winning side. Back at the Douglas, Dave did the honours:





Soup and sannies went down well, but eventually some of the drivers had to leave. Here's the east wing team:




On the south side of the snug in the Douglas, Dan, Malcolm, Colin and Tim were in earnest conversation:




The west end of the snug were a bit more light hearted:


Super day out - and, despite my fears that everyone had left without making a suitable contribution to the kitty to cover the soup and sannies, we ended up leaving a reasonable tip for the staff and still having £60 to carry over to the next gathering - hopefully on 3rd January, which will be the 23rd anniversary of the formation of BVFG - with any luck at DATA, if we get the forecast thaw next week. Watch this space. Should the match not take place, the surplus funds will go in to the Football Forecasts charity fund.
