“Friday (actually Saturday!) Night and the Lights are Low ….”

..Looking out for the place to go”.

And the place to go on Saturday night was definitely Stenton Village Hall for the Sing-a-Long-a Mamma Mia Pot Luck Supper.

P2210109 The evening started with good home cooked main course cuisine (by all accounts the Nutty Rice was outstanding!) followed by pud, all washed down with significant volumes of BYOB liquid.

Fancy dress was optional, but a few of the more extrovert village residents took the opportunity to dust off their dressing up clothes.  Here we see Doreen “Agnetha Faltskog” Thomsonsson posing with Jim “Benny P2210115 Andersson” Wylieesson.

Following a very successful raffle (thanks to all who donated such nice prizes) it was on with the film and peripatetic cheese and biscuits.

The Dancing Queens (not you Dick!) were in their element as the film progressed though a goodly selection of the seminal works of the 70’s Swedish popular music group ABBA. 

P2210132Much in evidence, but in no particular order, were June, Barbara, Lynda, Moya,  Agnetha, Audrey, Audrey’s Friend, Joanne, Michelle, Verity, Emma, Fiona(s), Trina and many more.

The event had been organised to raise funds for the Community Association and at last count had added over £580 pounds to SCA coffers.  Well done to all involved.

  6. I knew Agnetha was a recluse, but who would have thought she would hide out in Stenton?
