Our speaker for the day was Bridget Brill with a great talk about her travels, we hope to have her back as she has many other stories to tell us, very interesting speaker.
The birthday ladies were Del Sullivan, Patricia Petersen and Jan Duffy, who was 90 yrs young. Congratulations, Jan, on reaching such a great milestone.
We held a 50 club, which was won by Judy Levitt, the lucky door was won by Mavis Blue, and raffles were won by Gwen McGivor, Carol Butler and Barbera Glew.

What a wonderful year we have had, with the last luncheon of the year being held on Monday, 15 th December, with 29 ladies attending.
Everyone is getting ready for their Christmas celebrations with family visiting or going to family’s homes.
The winner of our lolly jar was two ladies, those who guessed the right amount were Jenny Berry and Trish Deans.
Jenny let Trish have the prize, and we gave another prize to Jenny for being kind. There were a lot of raffle prizes, so there were quite a lot of smiling faces.
We will be returning on February 16 th , and it will be our AGM
I hope a few ladies will step up and take a position on the Committee for 2026. Just think it over, as with no Committee there will be no club, and I’m sure we don’t want that. I hope to see all of you next year. Merry Christmas to all, and have a happy New Year from all the Committee.
