Thanks to all who attended the BOCA South Australian Squadron Christmas lunch gathering, for your company and especially for your contribution to a most delicious and enjoyable first rate spread.
Our great appreciation goes to Cathy and Frank Cord-Udy for opening their home and extending an atmosphere of friendly hospitality to us all and for the work they put into the logistics, planning, cooking and the day's preparations – Thanks guys, a terrific effort! Also thank you to Pam and Warren Leslie for turning their 2016 wine auction funds into beef, ham and chicken.
To our interstate guests who travelled from Western Australia, New South Wales and Victoria, we really appreciate you sharing the day with us and please feel free to join us again. Not quite an interstate trip but a significant journey. It was great to catch up with Mary and Mike Osborne from Ardrossan. We welcome our latest BOCA members, Kaye and David Olds, who re-joined the BOCA the week prior. We hope you enjoyed yourselves with the BOCA SA Squadron.
Bill Verco's photographs capture the day, below. Some will also be published in Club Express.
Well, that’s it for the BOCA SA Squadron for 2017, our last gathering for the year “Sortie # 8”.
