13 of us attended the above evening in Bovey Tracey on Saturday night meeting up at the Bell & later moving on to the Cromwell where we enjoyed what was an excellent meal (can highly recommend the Cromwell food)..

The night started with Stevie P knocking over Keiths first pint before he had touched a drop & proceeded to go downhill from there... Topics discussed during the evening of merriment varied from world politics, climate change, & global economics but swiftly turned to Footy, Jethro,s jokes, Fridge/freezers & subjects i can't repeat on here.

As the night wore on one or two became slightly the worse for wear, but sprang back to life once the renditions of cornish sea shanties & various traditional songs from around the UK began to eminate from our table (strangely our part of the pub began to empty quickly by this stage).. but we stuck at it gamely, before entering into endless monologues from each individual about why they loved BTBC, followed by group man hugs & back slapping...

An agreement was reached that this event should be repeated & a toast was raised to Dick for arranging the whole affair, followed by more man hugs & back slapping...As one or two were now beyond ressusitation it was decided to call it a night before the local constabulary were called...

Thanks to the following Keith, Kenny, Ken, Arthur, Graham, Andy C, Ali, Stevie P, Chris Y, Me, Phil C, Dave C & of course the aforementioned Dick for attending & organising the night.. great night, great chums...Oh & thanks to Tracy who was in the adjoining bar & who joined us later on (what a singing voice)!!!!!!!!.

Finally a word about Andy's nose, (hope alls well) (if you know.. you know)
