The Club Christmas Meal was held at the The Upton Inn, Upton Cheyney on Wednesday 17th December. The night was well attended, if only just remembered by a couple of people, you know who you are Rich and James, and proved to be very enjoyable and entertaining. We managed to find a good use for the "High quality" cracker toys, and, I believe, improved the decor somewhat.
