St David’s Day Dinner 2012

Our St David’s Day Dinner this year will be held on Friday 2nd March at Harewood Downs Golf Club.

We have been extremely fortunate that Roy Noble will join us as our guest speaker this year. He is very much in demand as an ‘After Dinner Speaker’ with an inimitable way of story-telling.

After a distinguished career in education this former Head-teacher is now one of Wales’ best known broadcasters presenting his own daily show on Radio Wales. He has also presented many TV programmes and written a number of books.

He was awarded an OBE for his charity work and is involved in very many charities. He is a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF,  a special envoy for the Welsh Tourist Board, and is the current Ambassador for the United Nations International Youth Movement.

A native of Brynaman, Roy now lives in Aberdare.

For the meal there will be a choice of starters, main course and desserts, with coffee & mints to finish.

Wine with the meal is not included in the ticket price but can be ordered on the night from an excellent selection offered by the Club Steward.

Those booking to attend will be provided with details of the course options from which to make your choice, and also the range of wines available.

Tickets are £40 per person, which includes the welcome drinks on arrival served from 7.40pm. The meal will follow from 8.20pm.

A keyboard and songsheets will be ready for our usual rousing finale, so all we need is for plenty of members and guests to turn up!

 

Quiz Night
Our Quiz night on 27th January was very popular with 38 people braving the weather and competing to answer questions with a Welsh theme.

Modesty forbids me from mentioning which team won.
