Christmas 2007 Reunion
As usual we held the reunion at The
New Aston Social Club. On this occasion the numbers were small but the quality
was high. The evening was supplemented by the St Joseph's Church Choir singing
carols, Dave Haynes providing a humorous spot, with jokes, Joe Harford with his
entertaining quiz. All this was soundly supported by Len Shields with his
excellent background disco, which actually got people on their feet at the end
of the evening. A great vote of thanks to them all.
It should be mentioned that many of
those attending provided prizes for the raffle.
