Round Table thanks the ladies

The event, held at Dean's Place Country Hotel, Alfriston, is organised as a thank you to the wives and partners of the members. It is partly a social night and partly to raise money for charity.

A raffle organised by the sister group to the Round Table, the Ladies Circle, raised more than 400.

Pete Wingett, of the Round Table, said it was a fantastic evening. 'Our social secretary who is known as "Skelly" did a fantastic job with the tables '“ every lady had a small bouquet. There was an X Factor-style competition and my group had to sing a Monkee's song.'
