Thursday Club enjoy Wartime Tea

Thursday Club
Last week Chairman of the Coningsby and Tattershall Thursday Club Dian Stevens welcomed 31 members and 1 visitor to the afternoon session at Coningsby Community Hall. A Get Well soon card was sent to Laura Lambley having been admitted to hospital.
Members enjoyed a couple of games of bingo organised by Kath Bedford and she, along with Margaret crick ran a raffle for club funds.
Everyone then enjoyed a film show of Springfields Tulip Parades through the years up to and including 2008.
Hostesses serving tea and biscuits were Julia, Kath, Dulcie, Margaret, Hilda, Thora and Colin.
This week vice Chairman Thora Veall opened the afternoon welcoming 27 members and sending wishes to Laura still poorly in hospital.
Birthday wishes went to Sal and Hilda and Colin Lamb called two games of bingo.
The remaining part of the afternoon took the part of a typical wartime tea-time when the committee served Spam sandwiches, jam sandwiches, jelly and blancmange with a piece of cake made from a Ministry of Food Recipe.
This was really enjoyed by all and the afternoon ended by joining together and singing wartime choruses.
If anyone is interested there are still a few seats left for the bus outing to Skegness on 16th September. The coach will leave Coningsby at 11.00am and stop for lunch en route. Phone: Joan 01526 344412 Thora 01526 342105 if you would like a seat.
