Thank-you

A big thank you to Elaine for all her hard work organizing the presentation night, she worked very hard. I hope everybody enjoyed it. A big thank you also to all who were wearing tartan it looked really good.
The food as always was excellent. I do apologise for the late start but the food made up for that.
A fantastic total of over £400 from the raffle; well done Maria & John for doing a great job selling the tickets.
I would also like to thank everybody who gave prizes to the raffle, without your support it would be a very hard job.
Thank You
John Butcher (Club Captain)
