ROYAL JUBILEE DINNER June 2nd

 

 


 

ROYAL JUBILEE DINNER

Salle de la Baritaudière n°2 at 7 p.m.

The evening was a huge success,   Michele did her creative thing and set the ambiance for the evening with bunting and table decorations.

 

Members had been invited to provide all the food – apart from bread and wine – and they did so right royally.   I couldn’t believe that it would all be eaten, but eaten it was and with considerable gusto!.  Many thanks to everyone who provided such a magnificent spread.

  

 

     

Entertainment was provided as usual by some talented members; noteworthy were Mike and Sylvianne who duetted to Mike’s guitar.  As the evening progressed more and more folk felt the urge to sing and it was a joyous occasion.

 

Many a health was drunk to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Temps de rêve et cadre romantique pour cette première réunion depuis 4 mois, et tous les participants (43 personnes) ont été très heureux de se retrouver!…

 

 A truly wonderful day!   Once again we were able to meet our friends  in the beautiful setting of the Lac de Jaunay.  It was our first meeting since the beginning of March and 43 Members and friends were clearly delighted to be able to socialise once more….

  

Après un très joyeux déjeuner , Brian avait organisé un quiz pour deux équipes (très bruyantes…) qui a eu beaucoup de succès !!!…

After a very friendly, companionable lunch, Brian had organised a quiz for two teams (very noisy…) which was very successful.

Etant donné l’enthousiasme général, nous organiserons un second pique-nique avant la fin de l’été, donc surveillez les informations sur ce site…

There was considerable enthusiasm for the idea of a second picnic before the end of summer, so watch this space!!
