REVIEW OF RECENT EVENTS


CHRISTMAS PARTY


Although it was a cold chilly night outside,
inside our Club premises was warm and inviting
with Christmas atmosphere, and if you still felt
a little chilled Maestro Paddy Kelly didn’t waste
any time getting everyone up dancing to lively pop
classics and the wonderful music of Johann Strauss.

And determined further to getting the blood circul-
ating, he introduced ‘Statue Dances’ and “Musical
Chairs”, which was great fun. The dances brought
back happy memories of popular party games in the
past.

A relaxing break followed for refreshments as Tommy
had a table set with a glass of wine or orange, and
Teresa O’Hehir went around with tickets for prizes
to be raffled later in the evening. So duly re-
freshed we continued with our dancing.

Upstairs the tables were set with Christmas fare.
We tucked into tasty turkey and ham sandwiches,
Cait’s delicious mince tarts and Christmas cake,
accompanied by Tommy’s lovely cups of tea. After
that we had our Raffle.

We concluded our evening singing a selection of
Christmas Carols accompanied on the organ by
Teresa Talbot; a solo, “O Holy Night”, was sung by
that wonderful voice of David Spain.

Thanks to our dedicated Committee, Club members
and their friends had a really enjoyable Christmas
Party 20l4.
