Club events for 2025 kicked off in time-honoured fashion with an evening of fun and laughter at which members enjoyed a delicious cold buffet supplied by Rose Petal Cake Company. Brains were tested with three fiendish quizzes, Anne G’s table winning overall first prize for the second year running.
Fantastic entries in the table decoration competition theme of “Simply Red” made judging quite difficult but Jacky H’s featuring Mick Hucknall’s face with red floral hairstyle was ultimately awarded first prize.
Graham D’s photo of frosted foliage received most votes in the photographic competition entitled “Winter Weather”, with Lyn B coming a close second. All competition entries in both categories can be found on the website Gallery. Leila’s raffle raised £121 which will be donated to this year’s charity, Martlets Hospice. First prize in the raffle, a ceramic strawberry planter and selection of comestibles, was won by a delighted Susan I.
Special thanks to Rose Petal Cake Company, Marion K, Pat W (quizzes), Leila P (for terrific raffle prizes) and all the Committee for organising another really enjoyable event.
