Still partying

Yesterday we had our section Christmas party by the lake. Rain that was forecast during the week never eventuated, so it was a perfectly pleasant afternoon. Lyn and I spent our budget of $370, and I thought there was going to be a *tonne* of leftovers, but in the end it wasn't so bad.

Of course I took lots of photos of the local birds.

Today I went and helped setup the "family" Christmas party.

Got to have a quick go on the jumping castle before they'd finished inflating it.

After we'd finished setting up I went for a wander around, and had a go on the dodgem cars, since I missed out last time because the queue was too long.

They'd double booked the hall which was a bit unfortunate, but not a big disaster. Got to see the bride arrive (to a full brass band playing "All you need is love").
