PAWS – January Dinner Report
Nearly 40 of us attended our Christmas Dinner at the Balkerne Restaurant in the Colchester Institute on Tuesday 14th December. Having booked a coach for the evening it was nice for the drivers to have a night off. We started with a welcome drink either a cocktail, mock cocktail or glass of mulled wine before moving on to a sumptuous 4 course meal. We were entertained by a singer, accompanied by a musician, and of course all the chatter on the various tables. It was a lovely evening and the students did very well with the food and the service and I’m sure we will be returning.
Our next meeting is on February 22nd when Mr. Kaufmann-Wright is returning with his “Wildlife Photography”. Visitors are very welcome at a cost of £3.50.
