It’s that birthday hat again. This year’s record turn out of 15 units enjoyed the well mown site at White Hill Farm, Pitton, where it was the turn of Pam to celebrate her birthday by shyly peeping from behind the birthday hat at the barbecue evening. A torrential evening of rain didn’t dampen the festivities that started with a bubbly party all protected by Barry’s big gazebo.
The mystery of Ron and Peggy’s grass hen laying an egg was revealed during the evening. While on holiday at Lower Polladras ten club members witnessed the egg hatching with chicks appearing the following night, a mysterious poem and finally a sign “eggs for sale” outside the veteran members’ van on consecutive nights added to the mystery . It wasn’t the little Cornish people after all, rather three ladies, Eve, Lyn and Joy who crept out late at night to plant the items.
The rest of the weekend was warm with cloud and showers. Salisbury market on Saturday morning was the attraction and for OAP’s a cheap day out with their bus passes for free Park and Ride facilities.
