It depends which way you looked at it, some called it the BENNOB weekend and others called it the NOBBEN weekend.

No matter which way you looked at it, it was, as usual, a great success.

For those of you who aren't priviliged to be a BENNOB, let me explain.....

Family Ben Meir and Family Noble together with children and grandchildren recently took over Mr Heilbron's property, Zimmerim and Moadon in Moshav Sha'ar Yishuv for a weekend bash.

This is the second year we've been there and we now have our routine, our lists and our likes and dislikes.... I can't recall any dislikes just now... the only problem, as always, was that there just wasn't enough food to go round, so much so that we had to go without our final meal before departing for home late on Saturday afternoon!! We'll have to double up next year girls!

Yuval and his team of chefs sorted out a great barbecue, Tommy and Amy insisted on attending to the dishes, Elad entertained us on the guitar, Polo and Jumpy enjoyed their wrestling matches, Chess, monopoly, cards were played, bikes, motorbikes and scooters were driven around the premises, we helped pick olives and make table clothes, we celebrated birhdays and anniversaries, wine got drunk, floors got washed, and, of course, lots of photos got taken,

Here's a small selection.......see gallery 20 for the rest.

Looking forward to next year.
