Present OC, AK, TW, DC, MC and newest member MT.
Well … after some pretty big nights over the last few weeks.. (over 20 people), all it took was a bit of a shower of rain at 4 o’clock to keep non believers away.
And what a great night… so nice that we even considered not lighting the fire, but after the sun went down, the still night sitting in front of the hot coals was EXCELLENT!.
Some interesting thoughts on the english language were propounded, and Andy elected himself as the resident expert because he was NOT from Port Pirie. In fact, Andy had his early years at the University of Peterborough and all of youse (“youes” according to Mick) have no idea about which you are talking.
Hot pies and sausage rolls, some nice chicken wings and a bit of cheese made for an excellent evening.

Trev needed to get rid of some wood on his spare block and spent some time making a bonfire. Seemed as good excuse as any to have an excursion.
Great ambiance, some nice wines, food and great fellowship… to bad about the crap sunset.

Its was a BIG meeting this week… for no apparent reason…
OC, AH, JW, TW, PB, JR, D&DC, DH, OR, MC + Guests!!!
The 2 Cs turned up with some lovely oocook and Andy had some little boys on open rolls with melted cheese. Just getting into it and DH rolled in with 3 Large squid just caught at Port Germein jetty. They got cleaned and cooked on the BBQ in olive oil… TASTY!!
Definately cool enough for the fire. In fact the startup kindling was so big the table got moved back an extra six feet. The addition of a palette and the flames were higher than the fence. We were also entertained by some of DCs pyros of various colours.
Miscommunication and two people thought they were the designated pisspot, so there was 2 extra bottles… bugger 🙂 .. they got drank anyway and OC still had to go get an extra one!
Sunset …. well … I think there was one?
Reds – 11
Beer – 8
Beam – 2
And a bottle of PINK ?????

Sorry for so long between minutes. Theres always good intentions, but if I try and write after a meeting, its normally drivel…. If I do it next day…. its hard to remember if we had a meeting or not.
If theres any minutes for the next three weeks, it will be from the Philippines, as a number of Sunset Club members are off to checkout the sunsets on the South China sea.
We had a great feed this week. Andy had a big plate of Little Boys on dinner rolls with melted cheese, and OC had pieces of roast goat meat. We were tucking into it when JW turned up with a home made pizza. WELL…. It was voted as one of the BEST tasting pizzas ANYWHERE, ANYTIME. John didnt seem to think it was anything special, but it was certaily 1000% on Trevs chips!
Sunset was crap… we have yet to light the fire this season… but we finished with some nice kareoke.
5th February
One might be forgiven for thinking that we have not been having any meetings.
Rest assured there is a meeting every Sunday with varying numbers of people. Getting time to write up some minutes is a real problem, but the reason for this outburst is because of the spectacle we were treated to on the 5th of February.
Generally the sunsets we get we rate either a 1 (cant get a zero .. the sun has gotta set), or around a 5 or 6. Well .. this has gotta be a 9.5.
Fortunately, Simon had a box of junk camera in his car and he snapped some really great pictures. These are NOT touched up in any way and are all of the same sunset….. infact, all raken over a period of about 15mins.
ENJOY
Meeting at Dave’s
Meeting went till 11pm. Dave did not have to go to work next day, so drank sparkling white, red wine and beer. Deb made Lamb roast – yummy. Deb cooked Andy’s meatballs. Plenty of nibbles and cheese. John Rowe made up the foursome. Great Night.
