Enid’s reconstruction of Kilimanjaro through the medium of meringue,

Shona had come up with a brilliant idea for raising funds for the charities: pay-for-your-plate. The idea was simple, we invite as many friends and relations as possible to our house, we provide the food and drink and the visitors leave whatever they think is appropriate as a charitable donation.
When I said we provide the food, what actually happened was that my immediate family and some friends and relations literally showered us with delicious food, Gary Morton donated the wherewithal to make an enormous amount of salads, garlic bread and soft drinks and Diageo supplied us with beer and wine.
We had somewhere between 55-60 people to the house and to say we were overwhelmed by people’s generosity is an understatement, people were incredibly giving. I’m still speechless.
