That’s not to say our intrepid reporters simply lounged by the pool of a secluded hotel somewhere in the Med, waiting for the next cocktail to arrive.

  • Members of the club are feeling rather like nomads, as yet again we have to relocate our club, this time to St. Andrew’s Church. We have been very happy and cosy at the Chapel Hall, but as it has been sold we are again homeless. We are very grateful to Reverend Lesley and the PCC for giving us refuge.
