Trev and Sue's Sunday Lunch

22nd January 2017

After an abortive attempt at trying to book a lunch venue near to Dursley, for our convenience, we decided upon The Beacon & Railway Hotel Haresfield which we had been to on two separate occasions plus a skittles evening a few years ago.

We were pleasantly surprised that 32 Members signed up for the lunch at the first meeting of the new year but  because of illness and the cold weather we had expected a few cancellations.  

Bang on time all 32 Members arrived,  five bringing their MGs,  and took their places at the tables provided.  We did have to share the room with two other parties but the way our tables were organised meant we were all together en bloc.

Orders were taken and the Sunday roasts and vegetarian meals were served all very quickly within 30minutes.  There were plenty of vegetables and jugs of gravy all piping hot.  Although the meals were large most Members could not resist the puddings.

We complimented and thanked Steve the owner for the excellent meal and efficient service his staff had given us and he told us that he had another party of 50 coming in later in the day. 

It was great to see everyone in good spirits and Gethin and Jan managed to make it thankfully in one piece!
