An Evening of Shenanigans

Last night forty ladies attended the Blairgowrie Ladies Social night which was called an "Evening of Shenanigans" as it took place on St Patrick's Day. Everyone arrived wearing something green and were given a delightful green drink which was a kiwi smoothie. Ladies were then divided into teams with instructions to complete some interesting tasks:
  • Identify the committee member's baby pictures
  • Irish anagrams
  • Irish places
  • What's in the bag
  • Well known Irish sayings
  • Blindfolded putting
  • Write a limerick
Teams had 10  minutes to complete a task before moving on to the next. In between moves, committee members each entertained the audience with an Irish tale or joke. The winning team was called the Green Goddesses: Isobel Murray, Catherine Couts,Norah Hay, Brenda Clough and Norma Fleming who took home a shamrock ball marker. Afterwards, everyone enjoyed a delicious finger buffet served by Jayne and Paul. You will see from the pictures everybody had a good time. Posted below the pictures is the winning limerick composed by Maureen's Leprechauns.

Note:Just double click on pictures then single click and then the photos will be enlarged.
There once was a golfer from blair
Whose wife had a steamy affair
They were caught on the tee
And the pro said-nae me!
And it caused him to have a 'fresh air'!
