All at a sausage sizzle with quality sausages
Nice people all with the Samaritans cause in common
We had a nice evening
Good night had by all?
ReplyDeleteAnd no car keys tossed in a bowl, lol.
Sounds like nice nosh with good people..plenty of variety for conversation there & isn't that what get togethers are about ? :)
ReplyDeleteI am glad. We have a similar mix here too. And they are nice people as well. Sometimes so nice I wonder whether they take niceness pills.
ReplyDeleteTasty looking sausage
ReplyDeleteListen tootes, nothing I like more than a sausage sizzle with quality sausages.
ReplyDeleteAll in one sandwich?
ReplyDeleteThe diversity of people who come together to do good things is amazing, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteLooks so tasty. Served on sliced bread instead of a bun, is very interesting.
ReplyDeleteA triple deck with grilled onions.....ok, i'll come out of retirement for an afternoon, notify the cath lab we're doing three coronary angioplasty with stents. I'll do them at bargain rates, considering I haven't picked up a cannula in a few years.....
ReplyDeleteMakes me think of an LGBTQ Pride event I went to a number of years ago in Winnipeg where the hot dog stand was staffed by women wearing t-shirts reading "Lesbians Like Wieners Too!"
ReplyDeleteAll people caring and working for a good cause. I'm glad you had a good time.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoyed getting stuffed with sausages!
ReplyDeleteIt all looks delicious! I'm glad y'all had a good time! It's a party when you've got good food, good company, and good times. Cheers!
Sausages look good! Sounds like a good cause. Catching up on some of your goin’ ons while I was on blogging hiatus. Sure does seem like you’ve had a whole lot changes — the Flower Committee dissolving, the frog episode and more. Seems like a pretty eventful life with unique experiences. I don’t recall ever stepping on a frog.
ReplyDelete... A 'lesbian' with MS... ? Why the need to mention her orientation and not those of the others at your dinner?
ReplyDeleteElsewhere from amsterdam
Purely descriptive as her wife was present.
DeleteSamaritans sausage sizzling successfully socially :)Glad it turned out to be a nice get together. x

Deletesausage sizzles should always use the worst available sausages. Obviously this was an amateur event :P
ReplyDeleteAs you listed the characters I was expecting you to finish with "... walked into a bar." Yours is a much better ending.
ReplyDeleteHa! Mitchell, I thought the same thing!
DeleteContrary to common prejudice, this proves that Welsh folk not only know how to party like it's 1999 but they are also well-versed in fine dining.
ReplyDeleteOh,I love that song YP!XX
DeleteActually I thought it looked so yummy I'd have been tempted off my no meat eating plan -- I bet it smelt good too! The tea dance looked fun - too bad about the conflict in timing. You have so much going on where you live, (That's not meant sarcastically by the way but very enviously). Good wishes. Jean/Winnipeg
ReplyDeleteYou were a little grumpy about this affair, but I think it was a good shindig.
ReplyDeleteThey and you are all doing really good work.
ReplyDeleteSounds a good crowd ... bet the conversation flowed and the laughter was never far from bubbling out ☺
ReplyDeleteIt was a nice evening
