To try and keep everyone in touch out of season, this was the second get together, and at Paula's suggestion it was a Hog Roast and held at her and Davids home in Alhaurin de la Torre.
We ended up with 31 of us for the evenings social, and one of the prime reasons for holding it on this date was to wish Alan Kenah all the best as he is leaving to return to the UK at the end of the month. Also it was the week before Andy & Gina's wedding, which is next Friday in Gibraltar.
We presented Alan with 2 Polo Shirts with the new 'Rambling With Al' motif, and one of them had the names of a number of walks that he had done with us during his time with the group. Alan has been a stalwart and valued member of the group, always taking on the responsibility of 'Tail End Charlie' when asked. It was he and I walking together on Thursdays that sporned the Thursday Adventures group, seeking out new routes and testing others.
The whole evening was a great success and our thanks go out to Paula and David for opening their home and pool to us, also to Daisy for being our Photographer in Residence, to the Hog Roast Caterers and to Stuart Hilton for the Tray Bake Deserts.
