Friday 14 November

Present: Iain, Berno, PW, John
Absent: Christopher, Daniel

Tonight the program was run by Frans, Dirk and Bryn. We had to make hamburgers from scratch, we were just given bread dough, raw mince and were told to make a burger sauce with the ingredients we had brought.
We had to do our cooking on the fire, but it was pouring with rain and we had a tight dead-line. We ended up running around like crazy tying to cook the ingredients alternating from the fire to the gas stove (where we had no oil or butter to fry the patties on)
Everyone's burgers ended up being burned on the outside and raw on the inside. Our sauce was really good though, it was a mixture of hot sauce and chutney. The burgers didn't turn out that bad in the end, the judges summoned us in we presented the burgers nicely on a plate with a steamy cup of hot chocolate. They were quite impressed (the hot spices must have blocked out the burned/ raw tastes)
I than said a quick yarn on my community service and friendship activities with the patrol.
We then had flag down they announced the winners: 1st Seagulls, 2nd Albatrosses and 3rd Seals/Penguins
We were really happy that we got second, with our hard work.
A very good and well run program.
