We had a great evening with Ann (of et Vin fame) tasting wines, guessing which they were and generally schlooshing! This schlooshing is quite a difficult thing to grasp.....wine in mouth, roll it around, make lips into a sort of "cat's bottom"and breathe in making a strange schlooshing noise. Got it?? are you trying as you read?? you should be!!
This is all well and good if you don't want to smile, giggle or talk at the same time, then it's disaster....and always with the red wine which trickles quite quickly down your chin and onto your clothes!! Hey ho all in the name of pleasure and raising money of course....that's the reason we were all there!!And thank you everyone we raised £355, and enjoyed every minute, thank you Ann you did us proud ~ and I had several comments that this was a marvellous way to raise money for charity this amount is winging it's way to The Children's Brain Tumour Research Centre in Nottingham.
Thank you too to Mike Wilson who was having a leaving party at Ann's before we arrived for our "do"and made all his guests put money in the collecting bucket as they left, Sam was quite happy to stand there and have money tossed in his direction!
Sorry - we didn't get a photo of you ...whoops
Sorry - we didn't get a photo of you ...whoops
See if you can see you or someone you know amongst those who supported us on the evening, and thanks to all once again....I think we may have to have another one of these evenings before too long!!
