The Rose Garden looked perfect, and the food - burgers, two sorts of sausages and pork chops (cooked by Peter Picken and Martin Humphries, helped by Heather Humphries and Joel Faulkner), along with plenty of salads, followed by seasonal puddings, was enjoyed by all.

Ken Garbett ran the bar, and a raffle, run by the President - with prizes ranging from some excellent wines to a dozen home-laid eggs - was well supported.

A nice line in background music was provided by Tony Pearson and the evening's entertainment was completed by Campbell Slater with his rendition of some favourite 'pop' classics from about 50 years ago with particular emphasis on Buddy Holly's repertoire.

Those attending ranged from the usual well-known faces to a very welcome group of a well over a dozen younger Members, brought along by Thomas Bull.
