Report
A very
jolly time was had by all at the Friends’ Christmas Party in December, including
two of our new patrons Mark Murphy and Lesley Dolphin (above centre, dancing a
polka with John Howson from EATMT). Colin and Karen Cater sang a selection of
seasonal and local songs, and passed
around not one but two wassail cups! Dave and Maggie Hunt came out from behind
the frying pans in the kitchen to entertain us in the old Music Hall style
(above, left), and Reg Reader and Tom Knight delighted us with dulcimer duets
before Tony Hall came on and bemused us with his Norfolk talk, thrilled us with
his gorgeous music and totally brought the house down with his new song - a
lullaby - you have to hear it to understand! Many thanks to all who donated
raffle prizes and helped with the preparation. Special thanks go to Grange Farm
Shop, Hasketon, Hollowtrees Farm Shop near Hadleigh and the East of England
Co-op, and Grange Farm Butchers from Woolpit who supplied the delicious sausages
for the meal.
