CLUB VISIT TO PONTEFRACT - 31st January

 

On the evening of Wednesday 31st January 17 members of the York branch joined members from Tadcaster and Castleford branches for a night of friendly competition at the "Vulcan" Club, the branch headquarters of Pontefract branch.  Needless to say we were made very welcome.

 

The competition was in "darts & dominoes" and proved an excellent medium for getting to know members from other branches.

After the "sport", Pontefract entertained all the visitors royally. The provided a superb buffet supper that even the vultures from North Yorkshire couldn't do justice to!  Although we gave it our best shot!!

It wasn't like this in the NAAFI!
