86 members from all over joined us for a fantastic Easter weekend at Bexhill on Sea. The sunshine on Friday gave us a good start with most people having a lovely walk along the seafront before sitting or cooking out in the afternoon. Rick and Bob entertained us grandly in the evening, filling the floor from the very first song. Lots of members caught buses to neighbouring towns on Saturday, and enjoyed Dave Haye in the evening in the hall. Rick raffled a donated bottle of whisky and raised just over £80 for the Sussex Air Ambulance. Thank you for the donation and for buying tickets.
Sunday saw a rumpus at the Easter Bonnet competition, old cars on the seafront, an Easter Egg hunt, bingo and a brilliant intergroup quiz in the evening. Well done Ian and Claire for the organising of the quiz and also to Kent for their win. Monday morning coffee was a little on the quiet side, with everyone recovering from Sunday, but Gordon did a good job of chairman's chit chat before everyone wandered off for a wet drive home.
If you enjoyed this weekend, then why not come along to the Kent rally at Maidstone Friday 20th April, and let's see if Sussex can get the crown back!!
