Oscars and Bowls

So last Friday night we had a movie night. The idea was to show the videos made by the expeditioners on Voyages 1 and 2 on the way down here. Some of the videos are brilliant. The theme for the night was to dress for an Oscars award ceremony. A few of us got dressed up in our 'best' clothes. Well at least Richard did...Me, Richard, Glen H and Cookie

And some of the guys simply used it as an excuse to get into the dress-up department and find a lovely frock for the evening...

There are two real women in this photo. Can you guess which ones they are?

Even Noolie (summer chef) got into the spirit of the evening by supplying the popcorn and making a load of choc tops to be served during intermission.

After a big Friday night, Saturday was always going to be a little subdued. A group of us got a hankering to play some carpet bowls, but unfortunately the pool table was being used so we couldn't move it. The next best location we found was at the top of the stairwell between the LQ and the SMQ. Amazingly, not one ball was lost down the stairs during the night. We got some very strange looks, but we didn't care, we were having fun.

Nice form, Brendan
