I've sent directions from Dollar area, if anyone else wants them let me know.  Sandy is just up the road but not quite in the same area for coming by road.

your show list is brilliant, Annie - I would probably win nr 9 and 12 I'll see what the family's plans are and will let you know if we can come

[doganjo]

So far we have salads, sausages, quiches, beefburgers & buns, pate and breadsticks, crisps, garlic bread; and also chocolate mousse, fruit salad, cakes (from Katrina), I've got Ice cream in the freezer and will buy more as well as a couple of frozen desserts.
I'll rustle up a fruit punch and maybe also an alcoholic one, need to get some beer in as well. Parking in back yard. Must remember to tell the neighbours 

[Roxy]

How can anyone not be tempted to come to your barbecue, with a spread like that?!!!

[northfifeduckling]

We won't make it , Annie
Have a great time today!!

[jameslindsay]

Hope you all have a great day and the weather is better in Clackmannan than it is here.

We had a lovely day - talk about loaves and fishes - I have enough food left over to feed me for weeks, and as for wine - my cellars are replenished.  Good crack among like minded souls.  Weather was very wet this morning but  it cleared up, the sun came out and dried everything up, and stayed out till after 6, then we have a down pour and moved inside.  All gone home, kitchen tidied, recycling done and dishwasher on with a full load.

Thank you everyone for coming along - I LOVE parties - when's the next one!  I had five in my last home in 2 years, so have a reputation to uphold!
