Christmas Party - Friday 13 December
I think virtually everyone who attended last Friday’s Christmas party will agree it was a fantastic occasion. Mince pies, Prosecco, chocolates, wine and beer was flowing!
I’d like to thank Becky and her team of organisers and volunteers who set up, run and tidied up afterwards. A huge amount of work goes into organising these social events.
The last partygoers left at 10pm, which is impressive, given we started at 2pm!
Everybody was complementary about the caterers. It was an excellent and efficiently run buffet roast dinner. They closed their café and brought their whole team to give us a fantastic experience.
The caterers have asked me to share their details with you. They are The Crofts Café, Briar Croft, Alcester Road, Stratford upon Avon, CV37 6PH (0121 491 7588, thecroftscafe@gmail.com).
They are open to the public for lunch every day except Monday. My favourite lunches are Wednesday (mid-week roast), Friday (fish & chips) and Sunday (roast). Their most expensive lunch is only £11.
Rita Leefe funeral arrangements - Friday 20 December
There is still time to sign up for Rita’s funeral:
11.00 Funeral Service - St. Andrew’s Church, Church Lane, Shottery, CV37 9HQ
12.00 Refreshments - Stratford Golf Club, Tiddington Road, CV37 7BA
If you plan to attend either or both, please sign up at the club or email me.
Christmas Closures
The bridge club is closed Tuesday 24, Wednesday 25, Thursday 26 December and Wednesday 1 January.
Also there is no improvers session on the evening of Tuesday 31 December. All other sessions are running as normal.
Changes to the front of our bridge club
Next time you are at the bridge club, you will notice a change to the front. We have made our club more accessible. No longer will people struggle to get into the club because of the tightly packed cars. Entering from the path at the side of the building will give you unfettered access to the front door.
