Welcome Everyone

This is lovely - well done Sarah and Mark!Thank you to everybody for that yummy picnic yesterday - it was good fun wasn't it? The lemon cake and egg sarnies in particular brought back old memories - truly marvellous thanks!Ok the way I see it we keep this for our banter to the greater degree - I still think there should be some in the Marche group but just not swamped with it. We want to encourage membership really don't we? I am stacked out with work for the next couple of days so will probably be quite quiet - press release Angie for the pizza night - Do you mean for on here??? I'm happy to write one if you do not get any other takers.Name - Pizza Wine and fun (draising) night - for L'AquilaLaters my luverliesMox X

Excellent title Mox, just waiting too tie up some loose ends before going public, could you have a go at the press release (thats very grand) or i will have a bash, lovely day yesterday, must let other members know of the picnic site in the grounds of the Lago, beautiful to sit by the lake and look at the mountains, and the owners very kindly let all sit there for free (I had thought there was a small fee). Robert did explain it was a fund raising meeting for L'Aquila, they must have thought it was a very jolly one!.Note to fat controller, no food or wine before meeting, the natives become too unruly,A

Fat controller? I thought it was all very healthy. I suppose my ciabuscolo was the most fatty thing but nice.Lovely lemon cake Sarah. I enjoyed all of the food and of course the company.

David - your salami was delicious - will just have to work off any extra calories in the garden today!Moxie - title great we thinkAngie - But don't tell toooo many people about our picnic spot - don't want to have to fight to get to our table - Monte Amandola next time? Are you up for it? x

:) Fink Arty wants to come in here for tea and cakes... You better let him in Sarah or he'll tear up the Clubhouse! Plus he wants to raise money with events!!! Yipee!Where's my jumble sale? Hrmmmph.Think we need a general meeting - good excuse for another picnic wherever you want Sarah not bothered just want more picnics J)

Sorry Arty - just getting the hang of things (Thanks Mox) - Prosecco on the bar for you Arty - just bring those pork scratchings with you! xMORE PICNICS PLEASE!

Thanks Sarah and Mark .... I'm here ! Now where's that prosecco ? See you soon! Robert
