With the removal of Covid restrictions, it was wonderful to see such a good turnout for the much anticipated ‘sing along’ at Spixworth Village Hall. Tea & homemade cakes, served by some of the club’s ladies were enjoyed by all. Hopefully this event is the first of many activities which have been arranged for the new season.

This quintessential British classical music celebration at Spixworth Village Hall saw Taverham Brass Band perform there first concert in 2022. Much flag waving and singing took place, and made for a most enjoyable patriotic evening.

The competition made up of randomly selected teams, saw 6 sets of triples compete against each other. The overall winners were Ron Butler, Morag McEwan & Jack Stanley, the runners up were Ann Stagg, Beris Blanch & Grace Glenton.

After a enjoyable match between Spixworth club members and players from U3A, Spixworth emerged as the winners, and everyone appreciated the good spread provided by U3A afterwards.

The cheese & wine evening was the first social event since Covid, and it was very pleasing to see that it was well attended, and successfully raised some money for club funds. The bowls drive was won by Peter Betts.
