Four Old Fogeys (minus one) Ogmore by Sea Barbecue 14.6.17

Post by knapdog » Wed Jun 14, 2017 12:50 pm

This morning at 07.30 knapdog, billyfix and libby arrived at Ogmore for our annual outdoor breakfast by the sea. The ffox was at home plumbing (the depths).

All was going fine except the barby wouldn't light. I tried dipping some gathered sheep's wool into petrol to no avail.
Libby tipped his bike over to gather petrol in a polystyrene cup and the cup melted. We did however discover that petrol sodden polystyrene proves to be a very good firelighter!

Image


Knapdog went off to do some rock balancing while Bill Grylls cooked the fodder and libby searched for suitable catapult material to destroy knapdog's boulders.

Image

Local dog walkers however proved to be a calming influence on Fanny and Johnny by showing passing interest in the cubs and, luckily for them, declining offers of raw sausage, bacon and black pudding.

Great way to spend a morning. Up with the lark and back home by 11.00.

Always start and end with a picture of a sheep!

Got it in one there Boggs.
You're never very far away from a sheep down here.

Nothing wrong with Carruthers.

Pity so many of you are so far away from our coast. Maybe later in the summer if there's a lengthy spell of good weather we'll post a "meet" up in plenty of time.
Lots of "hidden" gems down here.
South Wales members are a bit thin on the ground but at least we may get some "locals" joining us.
Should have taken a couple of fishing rods today on reflection.

Brilliant, i saw you three this morning at around 7.20am near Aberthaw power station, think you were heading towards the direction of st. Athen.

Bikes were looking good
