Rub the Lamp it's panto time - all for 1 & stuff


Some cheeky chappie Volunteers , finely dressed up , adorned in silks and bold colours and sadly nowhere to go...

This may become the default dress code for future club games and club public outings , though some of our throng who are much more well fed than these 3 fine Gents [believe it or not these are 3 of the raciest snakes you'll ever see at our club] , could cause a shortage in sequins and lace for outfits made to measure

Now taking bookings for the Panto Season
