It's that time of the year, the Silly Season and the Christmas break-up get-togethers are coming thick and fast. We had our last Probus Club meeting earlier in the week, followed by a Christmas Lunch at a local café. It was a good turnout, with about 70 members attending. We were presented with a little bag of “Old Age Pills”, they are sure to come in handy for our various ailments.
The tasty meal was buffet style, with hot ham and lamb in gravy served, then we helped ourselves to the veggies and salads. Followed by Christmas Pudding, custard and cream for dessert, and we heard murmurings around the table that there would be no evening meal served in most households that night.
As usual when in a crowd, the conversation flowed around the tables, covering all sorts of topics, although we noticed that the sound level dropped dramatically once everyone was tucking into their lunches. We pulled our Christmas crackers, donned the hats, read the jokes, and had a great time.
Lots of happy diners
And as it happens, we will be dining back in this establishment on Friday night, for another Christmas get-together.
