****** DECEMBER ******

26th Boxing Day at the Kings Arms, Heath Common. On a bright and clear day a good crowd and a small but determined team came together for this very traditional day. Lot's of familiar faces to be seen. Aileen and Fiona with fond memories of Ken, the delightful Doonan's including the superstar singing sensation that is Rosie. Chris Stevens back from a long break due to injury and Julie recovered from her hospital adventures were notable in the team. No dance master or squire as the awaited offspring was keeping them in suspense. Apparently real moving pictures of the day may be found on something they call "U-tube" (can someone check the spelling there). I assume this is some electronic system akin to "Spud-u-Like".
