Last night and today

Last nights Whist was very well attended. With 19 people there 5 tables were used (don't think I can remember 5 tables beigh used before). It did help that there were a few visitors. We played with a dummy hand on the ladies side and i must say it had a better score than some of the 'real' players. It went on a bit longer than usual but a well earned cup of tea and biscuits were dealt out at the end of the evening.
Today (Thursday) was coffee morning at the community centre. A lovely cup of coffee and some cakes and biscuits were served up by Aileen and the chat was flowing.
Tonight is badmington night. A weekly dose of winter exercise to shake off the New Year festivities.

Burns Supper

The Flotta Burns Supper was a very good evening enjoyed by all. It was well attended by visitors from Hoy and the mainland as well as Flotta Folk. Mince and haggis was served up with clapshot and peas followed by jam and coconut sponge with custard. When the band started up there was no shortage of dancers. What seamed like a short time (well it does fly when your having fun) it was cup of tea and bisuit time follwed by the raffle . Excellent prizes won by young and old. The band started up again until the end of the evening. A cup of steaming hot soup ended the night. swing yer pants

A big thank you and well done to the community association members
