Steam
and BBQ - Exeter Branch Saturday 6 June 2009.
By Ken
Vingoe
Twenty two
of us enjoyed a convivial evening at Exminster Community Hall, a
new venue for the annual event. Sadly the prolonged torrential
rain that day kept “The General” in its quarters, so we had no
steam-engine attraction this time. However, two new features
were:-
- How to
erect a gazebo to as near completion as possible indoors, before
taking it outdoors in the continuing rain for completion, in an
attempt to keep the barbeque dry!
- A quiz,
which I’m sure was enjoyed by all, kindly presented by Heather
Somerwill.
We hope that
the first feature will not need to be repeated. The children
enjoyed themselves with indoor remote control toys and we all
thank Ian Campbell for his fortitude in cooking the meat in the
really adverse conditions.
