Into the croquet club we drove,
But not to play the game we love,
We came here for supper.
Found a table and sat down,
Other members came in
And talking and laughter abounded,
Such wonderful friendships were around.
The meal was ready and up we went,
The selection was for Indian food,
I had my Chicken Tikka,
It was wonderful,
We then had some fun.
I read two of my poems
Before starting with stand up bingo.
And then we had a quiz,
I didn’t get any right
As I was asking the questions.
I read some more of my poetry
Which all seemed to enjoy.
It was a glorious evening
Which we all thought was wonderful,
I certainly did.
So much laugher,
So much fun was had by all.
That’s the beauty,
The beauty of Cheltenham Croquet Club,
We all mix in and do our bit
And everybody is so happy,
Sometimes we even play croquet.

- Comment from author about the poem: We went to a supper at our croquet club which was superb. Mary and I organised the 'entertainment' after which included reading some of my poetry, stand up bingo and a twenty question quiz. All seemed to enjoy at and I had some very positive comments about my poems for which I was highly pleased.
