Hanau, Germany, 2007
More Pictures coming soon!
Thursday - Arrival & Home Parties
Awaiting pics.
Friday daytime - Fire!
A
visit to the firestation in Hanau, where the (apparently) willing
volunteers told us all about the history and activities of the group.
Followed by various games involving hosepipes and breathing aparatus!
I only hope they don't regularly consume the same quantity of
beer and apfelwein that their visitors did. Great weather for an
al-fresco buffet afterwards.
Friday - James Bond Theme Party

Despite Ninove thinking they were home and dry with their sexy
"Bond Girls", Wotton somehow stormed the sketch competition,
with a ditty largely improvised on the night. Fortunately no pictures
seem to have survived.
The
Bond Girls stepped into the limelight again though with Inspector
Clousea, to present the theme for next year in Aix: Fairytales (at
least I think that's what the sign said).
Saturday - Business Meeting & Pubs
Down
to business at last - well that's what it's all about isn't it?
After the business was over, a quick Chilli and down to the pub
to watch footie.
The ladies were treated to a historical visit and shopping trip.
Saturday - Gala Night
Dancing
girls and live music to entertain us at the Gala Evening, followed
by some impromptu "talent" spots by members of the audience
- though hardly "X-factor".
Whoah,
careful Jacques! By this time of the evening, the traditional Chairman's
drinking competition has become something of a challenge. In fact
just holding the pot has become something of a challenge.
Sunday - Departure Brunch
Awaiting pics.
A big thanks to our hosts fro Hanau, for a great weekend!
2008 - Aix-en-Provence, France
Taking its cue from the fact that Hanau was the birthplace of the
Brothers Grimm, next year's theme is "Fairytales".
