Hardwicke Royal British Legion         



January 2012

First of all a belated Happy New Year to you all and hopefully everyone is over the various illnesses that have been doing the rounds. December is usually a quiet month for us, but eighteen of us went to the Hardwicke Church Christmas Concert held at the Whitminster Inn on December 21st. It was a lovely evening with lots of singing, laughter and beautiful music.

The Branch Chairman and guest attended the presentation evening at the Mayoral Suite in the North Warehouse at the Docks for

TS Gloucester Sea Cadets, which showcased how much hard work and energy these young people had put into their Corps. It was lovely to see the smart uniforms and how proud they were of their very commendable achievements.

Our Branch meeting was short on business, but we had a DVD presentation to show our "Review of the Year" followed by a Buffet, Quiz and a Raffle.

Our 90th Anniversary Year has gone very well and hopefully we can expand on that in 2012, and attract more younger people to our Branch.

We are looking forward to our full subscribed "Burns Night" on 27th January, and our next event will be a Quiz Night on Saturday 25th February at 7 30pm. Teams of 4 at £5. Please come and join us. Contact Carol Bratty on Tel 729960 if you would like to enter a team.
