  Christmas Party 2025

This year's Christmas Party will be held once again at Castle Green Hotel on Monday 15th December. Reception drinks at 17:30 will be followed by a two course Christmas meal and then Bridge. Partners/spouses are very welcome. The cost is just £15 per person, the same as last year, thanks to a generous £16.50 subsidy from the Club.

The menu is:

  • Main Course (served with a selection of chef’s Christmas vegetables and potatoes)
    • Herb infused turkey roast with stuffing and ‘pigs in blankets’
    • Pan seared salmon with hollandaise sauce
    • Nut roast with beetroot gravy
  • Dessert
    • Festive fruit pudding with brandy cream sauce
    • Rich chocolate ganache tart
    • Lime mousse cake
  • Tea, Coffee, and mince pies – served at the table.

After the meal, 18 hands of bridge will be played with everyone using the same Simple Bidding System (click for details). Partners will be selected randomly.

If you would like to attend, please complete the form below (one entry for each person).

Entries are now CLOSED. Please remember what you have ordered.
