2014 |   It was our first visit to the Great Glemham village hall Saturday for the Alde Valley Players Mistletoe & Wine. In the first half Katy sang beautifully to digital accompaniment, acapella quintet from Snape Five in a Bar prompted toe tapping with a sleigh bell accompanied Christmas standard but the triumph of the half was Merry Berry cake baking assisted by a two litre bottle of vodka (from Waitrose of course). We l♥ved the conceit at the intermission that the food was dropped by the passing air ambulance (who were to benefit from the evening) and served elvishly in Christmas stockings to a full house.

The car park was full at 1pm and the other customers were a more mixed bunch than the last time we visited. An awful lot of the conversation was inexplicably about watches. Pressure of business meant that Malcolm had to leave without a pudding. AfAR from Hugh (skiing) and John FH (too far, too busy). Birthday greetings received from Clive and Richard.
