End Of An Era…… Graduation Day

Good afternoon Hog Roast blog followers. Hope you’re all fine and dandy this fine day! Not long until we can start getting excited for the weekend! We’re already counting down until Friday and the start of the weekend.

We had an exciting day yesterday as we were catering for a graduation reception at a University. We arrived early so as it was a city we’d never had a chance to look around properly as we’ve always been so rushed for time. It was great to get a proper feel for the place and the city was alive as there were so many students dressed in their caps and gowns with families waiting to go into the city hall for the ceremony.

Afterwards the reception was held in an art gallery right in the city centre. As people came in they were greeted with a nice chilled glass of prosecco and canapés to kick off the celebrations. Family, lecturers and extremely recent graduates were all welcome to celebrate the end of one era and the start of the next. We were really busy as at lunchtime we were providing a sit down three course meal for the students and families before the actual ceremony then we had just a couple of hours before we had a different group of people for a traditional hog roast with salad and potatoes. We were on the go all day but it was a great sight seeing families in their best attire all looking very proud of their sons, daughters, sisters, boyfriends etc on their special day.
