Last Saturday saw another gig, this time with Steve my partner in our Gold project. If you don’t already know about Gold CLICK HERE. You can also find us on FaceBook CLICK HERE.
Anyway, where were we … oh yes, Saturday. We were in the function room at AFC Totton’s new ground. Now this was the day when Totton beat Bradford Park Avenue 8-1 in the first round proper of the F.A. Cup, and when we arrived the room was full of players, sponsors and supporters! That party moved to the club bar next door and various people appeared from nowhere to get the room cleaned and ready for our function – and they did a truly fantastic job!
The guests arrived, and took their places for dinner while we finished setting up and organised the screens to show a photomontage of the club members running at various events from the last 12 months.
After the food, the awards were presented, and then it was our turn to turn on the action. It didn’t take long for the floor to fill up.
I went around the tables and picked up a few requests which ranged from the Beach Boys to Rizzle Kicks. Steve and I had both brought our tambourines and in no time they’d been requisitioned by the dancers. Glow sticks and inflatable guitars also appeared and everyone seemed to be on the floor at one time or another.
Special thanks to everyone involved in this brilliant night, Sue and Simon from the Running Club who organised a great night, the bar staff and catering job who kept everyone fed and watered, and especially the unsung heroes who sorted the room out.
