A merry time was had by all at our Christmas social, with a delicious spread of food, wine, bubbly and a plethora of trophies and awards to recognise members’ successes and milestones.
Several members celebrated significant anniversaries with the club: Margaret Gatter, 60 years as an active member, Terry Holland’s 50 years and Robert and Jay Charnock 40 years each – an incredible 190 years with RTPS. Special trophies were presented to mark these milestones and all agreed with Margaret’s comments that the most important thing about the club is all the friendships that are made across the years
Many thanks to Emma Durnford, who organised the event, and Tony Drummond Murray for taking the photographs.
