There was a great turnout at Pant-yr-Ochain on the occasion of the Chester Easy Riders Christmas lunch with 28 people there. For the first time on many years, most people had arrived by car, rather than cycling there, as the weather forecast had been pretty dire with heavy rain expected by lunch time. A few optimists amongst us decided to ride from Holt in spite of the forecast – see Ken’s write up on the ride.
It was a pleasure to see so many faces, some of whom we
haven’t seen for a while due to medical issues or family commitments.
As usual, we were welcomed by the staff and seated in our usual
places (Keith’s Room, the alcove etc.) Dave Heath had done his usual excellent
job in preparation for the day and handed out copies of what food everyone had
pre-ordered – knowing the most will have forgotten. When it came, the food was
excellent, the venison pie and the turkey going down equally well.
Thanks from the CER members for all this go to our esteemed
Secretary who has taken this task on for quite a few years now and has got it
down to a fine art. So thanks, Dave for everything.
A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!
