Last Meeting of 2015

Article text
Party Night

Members and Guests arrived at our venue on Monday 14th December for the Annual Xmas Social Evening, the last event of 2015. Instead of the usual Carols, the sound of 60's music filled the hall and got everyone's feet tapping to classics from the golden age of Rock.
A full evening of entertainment followed the excellent Buffet supplied by the members, which everyone enjoyed.

Three teams were formed for the popular Twenty Questions brain teasing Quiz. Team B, consisting of Stuart, Joan, Bill, Kevin & Annabelle gained the highest number of points and had first dip into Santa's sack of prizes.
This was followed by the "Print of the Year" competition in which everybody voted for their favourite image on display. This year we had joint winners, Sue and David Mortimer, who shared the prize.
Next came the Raffle and once again, many of the prizes had been donated by the members.
The last event of the evening was the Auction, when the Chairman picked up his gavel and tried to sell off everything that was not nailed down, in aid of Club funds. This is always a lot of fun and raised a healthy amount as well.

In summing up, David thanked everyone for their generosity in providing the buffet, prizes and donated items for the Auction. Wishing all present, a very Merry Christmas, he said, it had been a fitting way to say goodby to 2015. Everybody leaving for the holidays in very high spirits.
