18th August - Barbecue(?) in Halifax

Chris and Tim picked me up at my parents' house about an hour later than expected and we set off for Halifax. We had great fun finding the farm where Martin lived - had to ask a few people for help. We eventually arrived at about 6pm. We found that we recognised quite a few people there including Peter and Norman. The barbecue had been abandoned due to the weather so we stayed inside. We cooked the burgers and sausages that we had brought with us. We also had some of Martin's cake and biscuits. We talked to Peter about his forthcoming holiday in Romania - there's quite a few of them going - it all sounds quite good. We then went into the lounge where the kids were having fun on the karaoke. They were doing songs from 'Grease' so Chris and I decided to do some jiving.
People started leaving at about 9pm so we decided to go too. Martin's Dad offered to show us round the cattery before we left. They are looking after 13 cats at the moment. They were all cute and friendly. Martin showed us the quickest way to get back to Halifax and we had a much more hassle-free journey home. We were back home by about 10pm. I'm really glad we went - it was an enjoyable afternoon.
