Club 60 Christmas Party

Members of Aberdeen’s Club 60 gathered in the verdant gardens of Tohito last Tuesday for their final meeting of the year. The weather was perfect, and the setting magnificent!

Administrator Debbie Barnhardt first introduced Ian Hamblin from the Aberdeen Town Sector Police Forum. Mamblin explained the role of the SPF, and explained the importance of knowing one’s neighbours, and being alert to possible problems. The SPF had drawn up a list of useful emergency contact numbers, which was handed out to all present.

Dawn Woods then read a humorous story about Christmas, which was enjoyed by everyone. Next “on stage” were Martie and Eward Swanepoel, who entertained everyone with songs from the sixties. Drinks and snacks were then served, and Theretha Janash presented each member with a pack of biscuits.

Club meetings will resume towards the end of January, with the date and time to be confirmed. Watch this space!
