APAPS 24.05: Season´s Grande Finale

The Leader´s Report

If you think that is not JohnH´s normal style of writing, you are correct. He got Chatbot to do it for him by asking it:-

Please write a 250 word blog about our annual early morning cross-country walk which had to be cancelled because of persistent rain. Instead we adjourned to eat a full English breakfast complete with two types of sausage, washed down with Bucks Fizz,after which the grown-ups played with their mobile phones.

Great solution: saves hours of sitting at a PC, bottle of red at one side, waiting for inspiration to strike.

The Coffees, the Preparation and the Helpers

 

The Ingredients

All making up the Full English Breakfast !

Plus the Fruit Platters

The Accommodation

First class sat inside.

Third class left outside in the drizzle.

The Photography

We were lucky that Yves remembered his camera and that Paul and Myriam also contributed some fine portraits. Yves, however, seldom does selfies so, just to record that he was at the meal, we find that he makes an appearance in some pictures where in real life he didn´t oughter be.

The two wonderful chefs

The Outside Group Photograph

Never before has the taking of the group photo been so disciplined. It was raining so we all dashed outside, stood for a couple of moments and then dashed back in, wiping wet shoes on the mat.

Then it was OATS.

OATS being Yves´ sequence of pictures of everybody on their mobiles which he has entitled "Old Age Teenagers." 

Thanks

 

to those who contributed supplies for the meal, to the Chefs and the Washer-uppers, to Chris Davis for extra bubbly, and for the donations to Hazel´s charity raising €115.

P.S.

The question was asked about the difference between a Mimosa and a Buck´s Fizz. A Mimosa is for American wimps - equal parts orange juice and bubbly -  whereas a Buck´s Fizz is for the hardened European cocktail drinker - no more than one part orange juice and at least two parts bubbly.
