What a night we had Tuesday 21st December 2010!
The ice and snow still laid thick on some roads and pavements, which meant the total number expected at our party was down to 16 adults and 5 children or there about (I think!). Games were played by children and `oldies` alike and it was wonderful to see and hear laughter coming from all. `Musical chairs`, `pass the parcel`, (a gift came with every page of paper removed) and `guess the spices`, were some of the games played, (Brenda was the one and only outstanding winner here! ) A new game to most of us was `slice the snowball cake`. The last person, young or older, to slice the the `snowball` after it collapsed, had to collect the chocolates from deep inside, using only their mouth! This done, the winner was left with a white `beard and mustache`. Congratulations! Great fun! Lots of laughs! The evening just shot away and before we knew it it was time for our `eats`. As usual, in true Cornerstone fashion, we had enough food to feed a regiment, which was great, because it meant the men could really enjoy and fill their plates and it was great for those who came straight from work to join us. After everyone had eaten their fill, we were all called to the inner church room to await a `visitor`. To our GREAT surprise, a `sugar
pink fairy` appeared (Rev: Alison). Draped in pink from head to foot,
including swaying `spheres` on her head, waving wand an` all, she
told a sad tale of Santa being arrested for speeding/parking outside
the church!
After great persuasion and talks with the police, Santa had been
released and would be arriving any second. |
