It was a real family affair at our fundraising ‘ Pub Night’. Veronica started the ball rolling when she persuaded her son Robert to use his Karaoke talents (and all that professional electronic equipment) to help us raise funds for international charities.

Ray was on hand in his role of Master of Ceremonies and all our friends and family rose to the occasion.
A whole team of people gathered during the afternoon to prepare the room. Robert and his glamorous assistant Rachael set the stage for the entertainment and Rosemary made a lovely job of the’themed’ table centres.

Thanks to Lynn and Janet, a lively quiz got our little grey cells working and kept the conversation going as each table worked together to get the best score. There were no arguments as the quiz master’s decision was final!

A delicious supper of pie and peas was organised by Dain and her sister. They delivered, served and made sure everything was spick and span at the end of the evening: assisted of course by Inner Wheel members who never shirk when it comes to producing a never ending dessert trolley and wielding a tea towel.

Yvonne brought her whole family and Michael kept us busy with a new game of chance.


Then it was on to the main event and it was great to see that everyone – young and not so young were all keen to fill in those slips of paper and give us a rendition of their favourite song.

We all know that if you go to an Inner Wheel fundraiser, you should never leave your belongings unattended – or they might end up on the raffle table! Luckily that didn’t happen but we did have a magnificent raffle to end the evening. Thanks to all those who donated the prizes.


Margaret and Frank Ceney sold the raffle tickets and two of our lucky winners were Kathy’s granddaughter, Charlotte and Carol Hyde-Barker. A well deserved reward to Carol for all that slaving in the kitchen.




Thanks to Veronica & family and all those who helped and supported to provide a great night’s friendship and entertainment.
