BOILED DRY

This week has been fantastic, ACDC, catch ups with old mates and a fond farewell for the BOIL.

It gave us a chance to find what we think is a pretty good venue for parties, the Victoria Bowling club.

There were about 70 people, all manner of friends and family who turned up at the Bowling club to celebrate the birthday of the " Big Guy" aka the BOIL's very hunky hubby and their impending departure to a excellent job in Europe.
We have never been to the Bowling club before but what a superb venue, private , sheltered, relaxed and roomy.

We dined on steak sammies, sausages, salads and bread and drank jugs of good beer and the girls had a selection of nice wine. We were waiting for the arrival of David Farrar to see if he had anythingto say about this column from Fran O'Sullivan about the polling of National.

Farrar, aka Kiwiblog was a no show at the party. However we got a call from him this arvo, from the Victoria Bowling Club wondering where everyone was . He apparently had the wrong day in his diary. He will be expected to shout the BOIL before she goes for such organisational tardiness!

It really was one of the nicest parties we have been to for ages. And would recommend the venue to anyone looking for something a bit different.
