Baldwin's night out

Well, after a few teething problems, a last-minute rush on tickets saw around 60 friends of Crosspool JFC dressed in their best togs arriving at Baldwin's Omega last Friday. Sue worked very hard to get the event up and running and we presented her with a bouquet of flowers to show our appreciation.
The meal was lovely, the staff were attentive and very helpful. We raffled a pair of gloves, to be signed by Gordon Banks, who has a personal connection to Crosspool. And then the talk inevitably turned to football, so at that point I went to dance....I went home at a reasonable hour; but I heard that some people were last seen dancing across Hunter's Bar round-about.....
Many thanks to those who put their hands in their pockets;considering we have 17 teams with, over 200 players, with around 400 parents, this is not an overwhelming turn out, let's hope any future fund-raisers are better supported.
