2018 February - Paul and Carol S.

​

Many thanks go to Paul and Carol for hosting this months GTG.

​

Despite predictions of rain and the previous weeks high temperatures and horrid humidity the weather had calmed down.

The day was a little warm with mild humidity, but their A/C sorted that out.

​

On arrival we were made at home with offers of delicious beverages and starter nibbles.

Which we happily consumed while sampling the delights of their Hi-Fi.

The main room has so many things to take in I'm sure I only captured a small part of it.

So much yummy food, in so many varieties.

​

Much to someone's delight there was Cheese cake.

Better still.

There were TWO Cheese cakes :)
