It’s hot dog night at Oxford Phab.
cooked in the Wesley Memorial kitchen
and served through the hatch.
We had hot dogs with or without onions, as well as crisps snd other snacks.
and a Birthday Cake !
Quiz night
We had a quiz using Simon’s laptop and the projector we bought for the club when he won the Paul Hope Award.
Here he is setting up.
We split into teams.
and BOTH teams ended up as (virtual) millionaires!
Noodle Night !
We had already given our menu choices for meals from Noodle Nation and they had been told what we wanted and had it all ready for us to collect. They had even labelled all the containers with whose order it was, which made distributing them very simple.
Mary had baked biscuits for desert for anyone who still had a space !
Normal Club with board games
We played a variety of board games.
including Boggle.
Some passing visitors to Oxford also came in and sung to us!
Mary receives the Paul Hope Award
At a ceremony at the House of Lords Mary was awarded the Paul Hope Award for all her contributions to Oxford Phab, Phab South East and Phab Nationally over many years.
Here is Mary with Jackie of Unity 70. For the first time the award was shared between these two very deserving candidates.
Here is a video of her receiving the award.
There is an item about Mary receiving the award in the Autumn 2015 issue of KIT – the Phab magazine.
Jesus Chris Superstar
We went to Jesus Christ Superstar at the New Theatre. Fast paced with plenty of excellent musical numbers.
Last Boccia in the Hall before Open Doors work starts on the room
We had our last opportunity to play Boccia in the Hall at Wesley Memorial before work starts on the room as part of the Open Doors regeneration.
Hopefully this will sort out the floor, as my ball kept drifting away from where I bowled it – though this did not seem to affect the other bowlers !
Just after another good bowl.
Normal Club with Hama Beads
Our regular normal club night, but as well as sitting around chatting, and drinking tea or coffee, we had Hama beads.
Serving Cream Teas in aid of Open Doors
A small group of Phab members served a range of home made cakes, and scones with jam and cream to the public in aid of the Wesley Memorial Open Doors project. We made over £75 as well as extending hospitality to a range of people from near and far.
We hope some fresh people got to see Phab in action raising money for another worthy cause.
Barbeque at Simon and Sarah's
Simon and Sarah once again rounded off our summer season by hosting a Barbeque in their garden.
Here are some early arrivals
and more of the club on our minibus
Burgers, sausages, chicken, vegetarian burgers and sausages, as well as salads and nibbles, and a range of drinks – plenty for everyone.
No Phab now until September – although hopefully some members will help us serve Cream Teas, in aid of the Wesley Memorial Open Doors project on August 8th.
