St Patrick's Day Lunch 2021

It was a bright green day at Bondi Beach Astra on 17th, as we celebrated St Patrick’s Day. Decorations covered the lounge and it was lovely to see lots of residents come down to enjoy the décor, food and ambiance (we had Irish tunes playing in the background). Food was organised and cooked by Paul and I and was an Irish take on the Ploughman’s lunch. The soda bread was fresh from the oven and the wide range of salads, pickles, British cheeses, sliced meats and fruit were much appreciated by all. At least there was very little left over, which is always a good sign! 😉 And we washed it all down with some Guinness and Irish cider. It was great to see so many dressed in a variety of shades of green, and there were even a few silly wigs, glasses and hats on display. All in all it was a fabulous event, well-attended and enjoyed, and some even stayed behind after food to work off the calories with a few games of table tennis...
