GASS DOES 'THE FULL MONTY' DINNER MEETING
THE ASHFORD CLUB Tuesday 3rd November
ORGANISER - WAYNE
EVEREST RESTAURANT Saturn House, 113 Station Road, TN23 1PJ Take a look - www.everestinnashford.co.uk
FIRST WE ENJOYED A PROPER SLAP UP NEPALESE DINNER! A slap up Dinner in the highly recommended Nepalese Restaurant in Ashford called EVEREST to get up a bit of Dutch courage. We left it to the owner to pick for us all, except of course for our increasing ban of food faddists..... Ron, as usual, no tomatoes, Nick, nothing that ever breathed or swam, Don, nothing unusual, plus various others who are just plain intolerant of other people, let alone food items. Excellent meal, well chosen Wayne.
ENTERTAINMENT GASS had acquired three properly velcro'd Full Monty Dress Costumes and a Choreographer and The Ashford Club provided the stage and the music.
Here is an indication of how we should have look in our attempt - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vZaSlV0sy0 Or, a slightly more freeform version? - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEBqGBKV0Bw
Sadly, the best laid plans of pissed up mice did indeed 'gang aglay'. To say that Wayne stinks as a Choreographer is perhaps being unfair on Wayne, or perhaps not. We needed way more discipline, way more forcing drunken participants to participate, way better photography and far less booze. Suffice it to say that rather like the famous un-photgraphed 'Hakka', we failed to get the much vaunted YouTube video.
Just a GIFF! (which will animate if you give it a mo to load, hardly worth the wait to be honest, but give it a go anyway)
and a few shots of the other contestants....

You decide who won!
Great evening as ever, thanks to Wayne, see you all next month.
