Fermenting semolina and a one million point darts score were all part of the fun at a charity weekend in Bushey as part of National Cystic Fibrosis Week.

Club members from the Lincolnsfield Sport and Social Club in Bushey Hall Drive played their way through a 24-hour darts marathon that raised £800.

Halfway through a brave semolina sit-in, Duncan Peak, from Nightingale Road, Bushey, had to bail out because the sticky pudding had started to ferment – but after a refill he climbed back into the tub and raised over £250.
