Cheltenham Croquet.

Goldfinch60



Into the club we drove,

My partner and I,

Our first time as members.

Ready to play croquet

We were greeted so well,

All talking to us,

As we talked to them.

So accepting were the members

Which meant so much to us.

Onto the lawn we went,

Went with people just met,

And in that afternoon

We became accepted,

Accepted with joy and laughter.

A wonderful afternoon was had

And it was made even better

As at the end we sat in the tea room

And were eating tea and cake,

What better end could we have

To a wonderful day,

A wonderful day at our new club.

Our thanks go out to all.

        So Mary plays also, what a joy for both of you. Congratulations on your new membership Andy. 😊👍

          Yes she does but not competitively just as an enjoyment of the game. It is so good to be a member of the top club in the country AP.
