RECENT ACTIVITIES!

Our recent activities saw a group enjoy a trip to Alicante in Spain, the traditional New Year Walk, and our Christmas Party at Shirley Golf Club. There was also a trip to the Broadway Casino where all attending managed to keep their shirts. There was also a significant contingent that went on the Iceland 41 Club Cruise and it seems they had a wonderful time! Many photos can be seen in the gallery pages.
