The food was typically American - chilli dogs, BBQd ribs, chips, cookies, and lots of ice cold beer.
And then, a marching band, complete with cheerleaders turned up! This set one of our party off into fits of giggles, as she tried to imagine the three of us picking up the pompoms, putting on the short skirts and being next. I don't think we could have wiggled our bums like they did!
After giggling at the cheerleaders, stuffing our faces with food and drinking several beers, it was time to have a go at the games. as an incentive, each one was giving away prizes, mainly cuddly toys, so it became a challenge to see how many we could get. We played mini golf:
basketball...
