Penkridge Pub Treasure Hunt: Thursday 22nd October

A decent showing of tablers for an entertaining, budget night out. Wandering the streets and pubs of Penkridge, irritating the regulars by looking for bizarre objects, based on spurious clues, which no amount of mobile Googling can solve. Sounds like an excuse for a pub crawl, and my consumption of Guinness certainly backed that up. Ending up at The Keys for the biggest spread of sandwiches and chips that Penkridge Round Table has ever seen. Rounded of the evening by appointing a new Vice-Chairman, who’ll now busy himself with planning the next year.

Take That Tribute Night: Saturday 10th October

A Saturday night in October at Penkridge Peace Memorial hall can only mean one thing: Tribute bands. This time Take That Tribute band Back 4 Good. Despite some misgivings from the gents of Penkridge Table it’s a sell-out evening. After a fab first set, there’s a fish ‘n chip supper (and no fire this time) washed down by more lager. The second set sees Back 4 good morph into Westlife, and the evening rounded of by a disco and some traditionally wild dancing from the chairman. A fab night and a decent amount of cash raised for local good causes.

Dave’s wedding (and stag do)

Unfortunately missed out on both stag do and wedding of 41 club chairman, and veteran tabler Dave, to (the ever patient) Beth.
Both the stag do and reception sounded like good events, but as this growing list of activities testifies, it’s impossible to do everything.

Presidents Golf Weekend: Saturday 26th / Sunday 27th September

A weekend of Golf at Carden Park in Cheshire, amidst some serious drinking into the small hours of Saturday night. Sounds like it was a good weekend, shame I couldn’t make it. I’m not much of a golfer, but I’ve heard that wouldn’t have been an obstacle!
