Skittles Evening
Well, that was something a little different; sometimes the simple things in life are the best, with 40, some very competitive, members taking part in the Waltham Chase Skittles Evening at the Mortimers last Friday.
Congratulations to the winners and a big thank you to our skittles helpers, Dexter, David and Billy.
If you want more of the same, or something different our Social Team are happy to oblige, as long as there is a “bar” close by!

The renewal process is quite “slick”- remember those old “Magic Numbers” and paper forms!
