On Tuesday, November 26, Seymour Probus held its annual barbecue at Elliott Reserve, with 32 members and friends.
A club spokesperson said the weather gods were smiling on the event.
“Fortunately for us, the rain stayed away, with the weather providing a warm and pleasant day to be enjoyed by all,“ the spokesperson said.
“The surprise of the day was the arrival of this year’s Melbourne Cup.
“Members were able to hold the cup and have individual photos taken. Probus group photos were also taken.
“Thanks must be given to owner (of Melbourne Cup 2024 winner Knight’s Choice) Rodney Bain ... for allowing the cup to be part of our day.
“And thank you, Rodger Mansbridge, for organising this special event, (and) our wonderful barbecue cooks, Peter Phillips and Charlie Psalia.
“Thanks also to Rob Hansen for making the delicious sticky date pudding with caramel sauce for dessert.”
