Judith and Blair Event

A good time was had by all on Saturday to remember Judith and Blair with fun bridge, great food and good company.

Thanks to everyone who made the day possible:

• Our main sponsor - Hobson Mills
• Our raffle sponsors (Waikanae Butchery, Griffin and Pops, and Relish Cafe), and also Margaret Gordon for providing the designer bags
• Helen Walker for her brilliant organisation of the whole day
• Kevin Walker not only for directing in his inimitable style, but also for setting up the hands and managing the play
• Maureen Pratchett for scoring
• Fiona McDonald-Bates for organising the raffle
• Margaret Gordon for managing the food and everyone else who contributed in the kitchen
• All those other contributors (room set-up, bar team, furniture movers, cleaner-uppers and so on), with a special mention to Sue Osborne (chief washer up)

Thank you also to those who spoke to share their memories of both Judith and Blair, not always an easy task for those less accustomed to public speaking.

For the record, the overall winners on the day were Anthea Black and Paul Brinkman - many congratulations to them.
