I went to the hall which was almost ready for the Children’s party this morning.
The whole idea of today was to sell the Hall as a social venue.
The children’s tables were lined up and decorated and the popcorn machine was out and smelling glorious, so we ticked the box there.
Bales of straw lined the stage with the TCA posters on them, giving the hall a sort of Ceilidh feel and the bar, for later was hid away in the corner for later. The bar tonight will be run by The Crown ( the village pub)
Bridget had set up a wedding table, using the utilitarian chairs and table from the hall and it looked lovely.we are advertising the Hall as a do-it-yourself wedding venue so this corner speaks for itself.
Well I’m sick of the fucking taste of it!
I’m made four batches so far
One more at least to go
One in the oven
You are a good man John!
ReplyDeleteAll in a good cause! You'll not want chilli for a while, though.
ReplyDeleteI hope all the hard work reaps rewards and the hall becomes a really useful and well-used venue. xx
Everything looks lovely and fun! I bet the kids will have a glorious time!
ReplyDeleteI am astounded , it looks superb. Great marketing. The chili, my word , it looks ready to tuck in to, give me a spoon.
ReplyDeleteDemonstrating different uses including the wedding table is a great idea!
ReplyDeleteGot room in your freezer for single servings of your chili??
ReplyDeleteYour launch for the Hall is outstanding. All the work toward making a highly successful launch will reap great benefits. Well done!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant, it looks great, the hall and the food. Have a good evening, noreen
ReplyDeleteIt all looks Wonderful John - the stage is now set for future gatherings x
ReplyDeleteIt all look brilliant - enjoy.
ReplyDeleteIt all sounds a brilliant idea though John - chilli or no chilli.
ReplyDeleteChili looks great, just needs a piece of cornbread to go with.
ReplyDeleteWell done John and crew, hope all pans out for future functions, and the chilli looks yummy.. GG
ReplyDeleteThe DIY wedding table looks lovely. You have some talented people in your village.
ReplyDeleteI salute all of the hard-working volunteers and wish you great success. And I'll trade you some of that chili for soup in my freezer!

Everything looks great, John. Hope this venture is successful!
ReplyDeleteClearly, the Hall is a wonderful venue for all sorts of events!
ReplyDeleteChilie ..Yum, though perhaps by the 4th batch it's lost some of its allure. Well done!
Hugs!
The hall looks splendid. I can understand the chilli overdose. You’re a trooper.
ReplyDeleteThe Hall looks great, and you've all done such a marvelous job. Hope the children's part was well-attended and enjoyed, and hope everyone has a lively and wonderful time this evening.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks fabulous - including the chilli. And that's from a vegan. x
ReplyDeleteI hope it's all going great!
ReplyDeleteThe Hall looks terrific! Excellent way to advertise some of its possible uses.
ReplyDeleteI bet you are sick of chili. But I bet it's good.
The Hall looks good and I'm sure all those who contributed towards getting it ready deserve to be congratulated.
ReplyDeleteBut why is it that you're sick of the taste of chilli? Why are you eating so much of it yourself? Surely one taste tells you what you need to know regarding the seasoning etc.?
You didn't say what will accompany it - Jacket potatoes? Garlic bread?
It was a great night tonight for promoting the hall and an amazing turnout. The chilli was quite delicious John, thank you.
