CHRISTMAS COFFEE MORNING
The regular coffee goers had a real treat at the Christmas coffee morning. As with many tables at
Christmas, the food table was groaning under the weight of mince pies, sausages, hot canapes,
Christmas cake, cheese and biscuits and a glass of mulled wine to help with the merriment and the
Christmas quiz devised by our very own Brockley quiz master!
Claire Hayward does a wonderful job all year round in running the monthly coffee morning and I
know the regular crowd truly value their monthly catch up with friends and neighbours.
Claire was ably supported by husband Nick and a couple of Santa9s helpers also appeared.
Thank you Claire
