Our first meeting on the 11th of July at our 'old home' was a resounding success, with smiles all around. We had a great turnout of members new and old. Special thanks to members involved with the relocation. A lot of effort was put into negotiations with the council. Also, some great detective work revealed the location of the Club's old furniture, which has now been returned. Well done to all concerned!
