Hog roast and end of season bash

[Doug Thompson]

Hog roast and end of season bash,
I have left it this long in the hope of some clarity as to what the situation will be in September.
I have to say I am still none the wiser, The current plan is to have the do on 12th Sept, (if we are allowed to dependant it would seem on a second wave, or not), I think the current rules are that a gathering of 30 people is acceptable, of course this may change, either way.
we have a few things tentatively planned such as a wood fired pizza oven for people to design and build their own pizza, plus Les Lyons has sorted us a sound system and organised live music plus karaoke and any musicians who wish to entertain are always welcome.
there are loads of other stuff we can do, of course we have camping area and as it is all outside, social distancing should be possible.
It would be good if people could let me have some feedback so that the plan can be developed further, or not.

Hi Doug, we'd be interested to join you for this. Please keep us posted :-)

[Gregory Collins]

Count me in.

[Anthony Britner]

Doug, to help with social distancing propose you make a load of 2m radius hoops for people to wear. This will of course make access to alcohol harder but the challenge should be in line with the usual weird stuff that happens at yours.

Wendy and I will be there Doug, wouldn't miss it for the world

I hope you're not making any more of that dodgy home made alcohol though, or is there still plenty left from last time  :evil:

that means they will be 4metres apart !!!!

[adrian morris]

count me in Doug - do we need shelters putting up again ?

I did specify hoops not cylinders, so need to be bigger to account for overlap.

although, the beer-aquisation-challenge when surrounded by a 1 metre diameter solid cylinder will be interesting to watch.

of course there will be homemade alcohol, this years special, peapod wine.

yes I think shelters may well be essential the way the weather has been lately.

we will have to scale it down a bit this year due to extraordinary circumstances, so to this end I don't plan to invite the neighbours this time, I think they will understand, we are allowed 30 people for an outdoor gathering, I think we can manage that.
we should get plenty of seats at social distance, hand gel, hand washing facilities, (in toilet),
a book so that people can leave contact details, paper plates, people should not share glasses or drink from the same bottle unless they are from the same household.
Can anyone think of anything I have forgotten.

[Steven Tate]

I am interested in coming. If you need thing doing before  give me a shout and if able will be up to help.
