The Northshore annual street braai (barbacue)

Gill and Eric Wells started an event some four years back,the recipie is rather simple,they light the fires at 5pm sharp,open a beer,then sit back and see who turns up!


It takes place on the first saturday in September,which Eric says marks spring,looking at some of the new leaves on the trees,I would say he is correct.


Now in its forth year,its become a great success with a good turn out.



To organise your own such event,just print a batch on notices and two weeks before the set date,take a walk around your own estate,dropping the messages in each post box as you go.Then light the fires on the given date and see who turns up!

How hard can that be?
