Refreshments for Club 10s ............. comments needed by Steve
I’m exploring the option of bringing back the refreshments –
My thought is, maybe we buy (out of club funds) a couple of large thermos flask type containers, which I fill with hot water. Buy some coffee, tea bags, pint of milk, sugar, a few plastic cups etc… Everybody helps themselves out of back of one of the cars. The £2.00 levy includes a brew & club funds reimburse milk/tea/coffee etc… When Dennis ran the tea wagon, it was a real ‘social’ event. I think we miss that & would be good to bring back, in some form. Thoughts? Cheers, Steve.
