Thanks for the Eggcellent result Did I really just type that! Oh well, forget the cringe-worthy heading and think about the great result coming from Lesley’s idea and organisation and members’ generosity in purchasing tickets for our recent Easter Egg raffle. A lot of chocolate changed hands and the event raised £140 for club funds.…
