Our annual get-together. Your small contributions of seasonal food to share always provide a welcome spread of nibbles and treats, drinks will be on sale in the Club bar and you will be able to buy last-minute gifts at the bookstall. Following the success of last year’s quiz about small antiques and curiosities, members are invited to bring their own curious and quirky items to share with us all!
