Friday 6th January saw 16 people sit down to the New Year club lunch at the Livermead Cliff Hotel, Torquay. As usual the food and the service was excellent. Ann had furnished the hotel with menu requirements and table plan - all of which were carried out to our satisfaction.
Lunch over, we returned to the coffee lounge to consume mincepies and finish it off with tea/coffee. Entertainment was prepared by Ron and Jim most of which challenged our memories and general knowledge (a difficult task on a full stomach!). Ron acknowledged the winners of his quizzes with token rewards while Jim persuaded his winners that they need to live into the 2030s to claim their prize.
We left around 4pm with everyone agreeing that it had been the enjoyable occasion that we have come to expect from our annual social event.
