A garden group having fun.

I had,.... 

3 small triangular shaped salmon and cucumber sandwiches with  brown bread.                                                                                               1/8th of a pork pie, I know it was an 1/8 because we took it and Dh cut it.                                                                                                      Some crisps and those tiny salted biscuits.                                             A very small pasty, short crust pastry and some sort of meat, quite tasty... made by Kay

Then 2 small scones with jam and cream,  very small.                           3 small finger size chocolate eclairs, (they were the ones Tesco have in their frozen section, Dh saw the  boxes they had  come out of.)                   A Mr Kiplins pink French Fancy little cake.

There was a lot more food there, cakes, Strawberry Eton Mess, Trifle, salads, dips, pies, more sandwiches, and strawberries and fruit, 

There was wine there too, but I don't drink it anymore so had 2 cups of tea.

And as I am dieting, even though it all looked delicious, I restrained myself, sort of!!!

And a heap of laughter and chat and photographs of gardens on a big flat screen TV.  The photographs were run as a slide show and were of the members' gardens. A very enjoyable afternoon at our U3a garden group monthly meeting. The bring and share food was to celebrate 30 years of the U3a in Porthcawl.  

We talked and laughed, I heard all about Caroline's Jersey holiday, now I want to go! It was a lovely, lovely afternoon.

Sounds like you had a delightful afternoon. It must be fun sharing with people that are like-minded and interested in the same projects.
