Last weekend (28/29 June) was a very social one for the Limestone Coast Ulyssians.
Friday nights dinner at the Western Tavern was a lot of fun, and after, everybody came around to Meredith & Steve's house to visit Steve.
He has been laid up on the couch since his operation (Achilles Tendon for those who haven’t caught up on the news).
Latest news is he will be in plaster for another 4 weeks.
We also welcomed Murray from the Mallee, who is a friend of Chris and Coralie. He thoroughly enjoyed our company (I think !!!)
Sunday was very chilly, however that never deterred 18 Riders from going on an impromptu trip to the Rocks Tavern for lunch.

Our inaugral Pizza & Pasta night Friday 30 May at the Cosmopolitan Pizza cafe was a great success. Dario was a great host, his food was very tasty, and the service efficient. There were a lot of positive comments. I think we will be doing it again.
Sorry about the photo quality, must have been the Red Wine.
