Despite a yellow alert, a forecast for thunderstorms, intense downpours and frequent lightning, the club BBQ and Paella evening went ahead as planned. The weather remained calm all day, but, just as the BBQ was firing up, the heavens decided to open. Unperturbed Steven braved the torrential rain under an umbrella to provide a scrumptious BBQ of chicken, burgers and sausages whilst inside Jane, Janet & Janet’s daughter slaved over the cooker with 3 extra-large paella pans. Together they catered for almost one hundred people. A tall order in those conditions!

Spanish music created the atmosphere whilst the storm raged outside. Shaun introduced some themed games to keep everyone entertained which included a touch of flamenco dancing that amused members whilst they waited for their food.
