A big thank you also to all the traders that contributed prizes for the charity raffle and to everyone that bought a ticket or made a donation. It raised £174.20 GBP which the Club are topping up to £225 GBP in aid of the MS Society. www.mssociety.org.uk

Everyone I spoke with seemed to have an enjoyable day. I also managed to briefly chat with a few LAFers.

We even came close to having to ask people to stop playing some of the participation games so that we could start to clear the venue at 4pm!

See you all again in 2013.
