An Evening with Philip Glenister
On Friday 21st February we had the pleasure of Club Member Paul Mendelson interviewing his long-time friend and actor Philip Glenister. Full of jokes and anecdotes, it was a truly entertaining evening.
Here’s what you said:
‘Very enjoyable evening. Excellent food and service. “Lord“ Mendelson and Philip Glenister were most entertaining.‘
‘Loved the soufflé. Enjoyed sharing table with new people. The talk was fun’
‘The meal was excellent particularly the soufflé. The entertainment was fun and Paul was a first class compère.’
Flipping Pancakes
On Tuesday 25th February the youngest Members of the Club had lots of fun at one of our special workshops for Juniors. Chef Andy explained to the little ones the meaning of Shrove Tuesday before they all had lots of pancakes to eat, decorated Mardi Gras masks and played some special pancake games.
Here’s what you said:
‘My children loved the pancakes especially the chocolate sauce. They also loved all the crafts!’
