On arrival to Downshire Academy we were met by our host for the weekend Harry, Jane, Tommy and Diane. Who had us quickly parked up for the weekend. On the Friday evening we all enjoyed sitting outside as a group, there was plenty of laughter, a good mix of music and even a bit of dancing. On Saturday morning we woke up to the rain. Some members braved it out to watch the Pageant (I believe some members had a dry spot with a view and some refreshments), our host kindly offered a taxi service for the day, whom many availed. Others went out for a drive and visited the local railway museum in Whitehead and some went shopping. On Sunday morning some members went to the local Vineyard Church. There was a kind invitation from the Church to stay for tea afterwards to celebrate Father's Day. The number plate draw was won by Norman and Lynnette Graham. Brian and Hayley Warnock
