The Northern Soul Wardy Weekender

Ok, so having just published the post below, I'll keep this short, especially as most of you would've seen the pictures on Facebook.

Wardy celebrated her 29th birthday on the 20th and she decided to go lawn bowling. H and I had played once before and the Aussies are mad for it. Obviously Mike, who plays regularly back in Bristol, was in his element, and if he wasn't there we would probably all still be there trying to sort things out. He organised the teams, told us the rules and kept everyone on their toes. I don't think he had ever seen anything like it - beer and barefeet on the hallowed turf and a guy in a tutu (you can see him in the first picture)! It was a great afternoon and evenings entertainment. Seeing him kiss the jack as he beat Kirby in a singles match was a particular highlight.

From there we kicked onto The Fringe Bar in Paddington where Sticky Floor Simo put on another night, this time to celebrate his 31st birthday.
