Annual Dinner & Presentation Evening 2009

This year we had a change of venue for our Annual Dinner Dance and Prize Presentation and our new venue was The Moorcock Hotel above Waddington.

As instructed on their tickets members and guests started to arrive around about 7.00 pm. and were greeted with roaring open fire as they sat down to pre dinner drinks in what was a very cosy atmosphere.

Around 7.45 pm we were called by our MC for the evening Mr. Chris Lee, to take our seats for dinner. After all were seated grace was offered by our “Flying Vicar” the Rev. Barry Whitehead ably assisted by his daughter Eve. Everyone now enjoyed a very tasty three course meal, which all at our table thoroughly enjoyed. After coffee Martin Wylie and Chris Gradwell circulated selling raffle tickets. There now followed the Presentation of “Awards” which were as follows.

A very heartfelt thanks to you both from all our members and guests for a magnificent evening once again.

Following the Loyal toast proposed by Mr. “Ted” Heath there followed a draw for the raffle with numerous magnificent prizes, after which the DJ struck up and some of our members and guests did some very energetic dancing. My party retired to sit by the open fire in the bar area and enjoyed a few drinks. Around 11.30 pm various guests began to depart having enjoyed another very successful evening and our thanks must go to Carolyn Taylor, for all her efforts and hard work. Hope to see you all again next year. Editor
