July 2008

 

The annual Garden Party was held on Saturday 19 July in the delightful garden of John & Loretta Proctor at Malvern, looking out on to the hills. Following the rain and floods which disrupted last year’s event, the weather was relatively kind – bright and dry if rather cool. In the absence of master chef Soteris Georgiou there was no barbecue this year, but members had prepared a wide range of tasty Greek dishes, appropriately accompanied. Greek music play discreetly in the background. As the saying goes, a good time was had by one and all.


Chairman, David Leggott, rounded off the party by making two presentations: to Loretta Proctor for her hospitality for the evening, and to Liz Johnson who was retiring after four years as Club Treasurer.


As usual, there will be no meeting during August and the next event will be on Thursday 25 September at the Worcester Golf & Country Club, Bransford Road, Worcester at 7.30 pm for 8.00 pm. It will feature the Greek film “Rembetiko” – a fictionalised account of the famous singer Marika Ninou – in Greek with English subtitles. The sound track by Stavros Xarharkos is justly famous. New members and visitors are always welcome. For further information contact Pat Bosworth, Membership Secretary, tel: 01905 422789.
