Hi All.
Most of you have probably heard by now that I was named as Triumph Sports Six Club's member of the year at the AGM in September. I was almost speechless and I am truly honoured to have received this award. It means a lot to me. Thank you.
Our return to our usual meeting venue felt a little strange. Now partially refurbished and renamed it was brighter and had a trendy feel to it. Welcome back cakes and chocolates were scoffed during the night. They didn't mix that well with beer though. Due to colds and sniffles we were down on expected numbers but that didn’t stop us have a good old chinwag and a bit of a laugh. I learnt a bit about railway engineering from Bryan and Jerry. It was great to see Richard W make a return and bringing along his son Billy. Future events were discussed and dates got very muddled - what year is it?
It was agreed that we will hold our Christmas Pizza night again this year on Monday 13th December together with our usual Christmas raffle. The New Year Run is being planned for 9th January 2022 and ideas as to where we could start or use as a mid-point were considered and will be investigated. The question was asked “Do we bring back the Derwent Valley Bowl in 2022?"
We had a dingbats quiz. You could hear a pin drop, well, pens scratching on paper but you get the idea. A relatively easy quiz but it still had a few stinkers. Billy wiped the floor with everyone. Not only finishing the quiz very quickly, he rubbed salt into the wounds by only getting one wrong. Well done Billy.
