A great day had by all at our company trip to the Farm Park on Saturday 12th May 2012. The weather stayed nice for us for most of the day although we did have a couple of showers!

Around 70 people attended the Cookery demonstration by Mauread Anderson when we were shown various ways of preparing, cooking and serving some quick meals. She showed a variety of starters, main courses and sweets, all made with little preparation time. The presentation of the food was admired and the tasting was a great success. Everyone was given a copy of the recipes shown, and Mauread very happily answered questions from the audience. It was an excellent evening rounded off by a supper.
