Mens Lunch!
Seventeen ‘blokes' gathered at the Williams Hotel for the inaugural men's lunch on Friday 30th September. Some had a quick steak sanga, a lemonade and a yack before heading back out to work, some stayed a little longer!
Thanks to Rob Darcy for organizing this day which we hope will become a regular event. All men are welcome (apologies to those that did not hear about Septembers in time), there is no agenda, just an opportunity to take time out of our hectic (or not) schedules and catch up with other blokes in the community.
The popular consensus is to gather at the pub for a lunch (from 12 noon) on the last Friday of every quarter, hence the next lunch will be held on December 30. Hope to see you there.
