CIVIL SERVICE RETIREMENT FELLOWSHIP: Evesham group's Christmas social morning on December 14 was the last meeting to be held at Evesham Library. There was a good attendance and members enjoyed the buffet provided by the committee, lively conversation, a picture quiz and raffle.

The pre-booked lunch at the Round of Gras on January 11 is the final formal event of the group and ends many years of social events, speakers, outings and above all friendly meetings. A suggestion has been put forward that members may like to meet informally for coffee at 10.30am on the second Tuesday of each month but a venue has yet to be decided. It is proposed a decision will be made at the Christmas lunch.
