Anniversary Dinner 10th January 2025

We had our Anniversary Dinner at our usual venue, Astley Bank in Darwen. Despite the snow, everyone managed to drive up the steep and rather slippery road to the hotel. The meal was pronounced first class and a convivial evening was enjoyed by all. We are now thinking ahead to a Midsummer Dinner. Watch this space!
