| Paul & Margaret feeling the festiveness |
It was not the sort of weather we birders usually hope
for - wet, windy and wild but a perfect day to tuck into our delicious
Christmas lunch held at the delightful Umthunzi Hotel in Umtentweni.
Chairman Herbie welcomed us all and we were soon devouring butternut soup, salads, Umthunzi’s famous calamari, curried vegetables, roast
beef, turkey with trimmings (to name just a selection), then on to delicious desserts
– trifle, bread and butter pudding and my ultimate weakness – Xmas mince
pies. Our favourite tipples were also
consumed and a very merry time was had by all.
Special thanks go to Barry & Sue for organising
the venue and to the Committee for all the hard work they have put in during
the year.
And here is the evidence!
