| A fleet of golf carts ferried guests up the winding Barford driveway |
Hundreds did just that last night in the pouring rain.
The Silver Committee threw one of it's legendary bashes at
Barford, the magnificent hill-top home of
Maggie and Ian Joye which seems to stretch over several acres of one of Australia's most exclusive suburbs, Bellevue Hill.

The theme was
Serengeti at Dusk and the decor and outfits reflected that but , well it is Sydney after all and at this time of year, when it rains it pours.
Did that dampen guest's enthusiasm ?. Not one bit as they dashed from one marquee to another under a sea of umbrellas with most deciding to settle in at the
Moet & Chandon tent and sip champers out of silver goblets.
It was all in a good cause with funds raised going to the
Sydney Children's Hospital in Randwick (patron :
Nicole Kidman) and while the
Shuttle only stayed for one hour, as we sauntered down the driveway we could hear an announcement proclaiming that over $375,000 had been raised so far. And the night was only young.
