Other attendees included Diana Tyszka, Ingrid Slater, Anne O’Grady, Yasmin Field, Joe Field and Roseanne Field, who did a superb job in the kitchen preparing the banquet for after the event. Thanks also to Dean Field for organising what was clearly an enjoyable and successful event.
Congratulations to Charlotte Ward, Ken Hutson, Paul & George Van Dam who won the event. (NOTE – All regular attendees of the Beverley Club Nights and another testiment to benefits of Neil’s and the two Brian’s coaching.) The team balance seemed about right, although Ken Hutson’s tow from Sam Hutson gave Team 4 the edge.
Brian Ward has volunteered to put on the 2011 event on behalf of winning team member Charlotte and has already started to put his cunning plan into action.
