Another fantastic year has been completed for Farmborough Goodwill Club – the last coach trip of the year was a five day Tinsel and Turkey holiday to Warners Corton Holiday Village, near Great Yarmouth.

After a long coach journey, the members and their friends got straight into the action with a great evening meal, followed by a show put on by the entertainment team, and a few drinks, of course!

The next morning the party were taken to the delightful town of Norwich, where the old and the new buildings fit together wonderfully well and there were good shopping areas.

The food and entertainment were again first class for Christmas Eve. Christmas Day started with a first class breakfast brunch, then off to the seaside town of Great Yarmouth and out came the sun. Turkey and stuffing was the meal that was prepared for the evening and Christmas pudding with lashings of custard. On Boxing Day there was the short journey to the Broads, again the sun shone for coffee at the water’s edge.

The party eventually said goodbye to the excellent staff at Warners and made the long journey back home.

Everyone agreed it was a superb five days and look forward to the same in 2017.

The Farmborough Goodwill Club meet every other Thursday at 2.30 p.m. at the Memorial Hall, Farmborough. New members are always made welcome and there is great entertainment arranged for the New Year and some good coach trips. Our first meeting will be on January 12th.
