BLACK AND RED SUPPEER

As can be seen from the photos, everyone got into the spirit of the event by dressing in black and red and the tables had also been laid out to match.

Sue & Rob were in the kitchen and produced the most amazing meal. Everyone said it was superb (some said the best food they had had at any ICE event!) and all delivered to the tables in a timely manner.

Following the meal Danny Vaughn played guitar and sang some of our old favourites from the 60s and 70s for us to dance to.

Well done to all concerned in the preparation and organisation of another very successful event.

PANCAKE RACE

Great fun round the pool on Shrove Tuesday even though we were low in numbers.

Ian and Sue won the prestigious prize. Thanks to Brenda & Renee for the delicious pancakes, which proved to be very popular, some people who shan't be named had 4!!!

TRIP TO MIRAMAR SHOPPING AND MIJAS LUNCH

A great day out visiting Miramar for some retail therapy and then to Mijas for lunch. I have never seen Mijas so quiet and many of the shops and restaurants were closed.

Our group of 9 found a lovely restaurant overlooking the square, a lovely menu del dia, but many other restaurants were pleased to see ICE members go through their doors. A good day out, thank you Sheila for organising and it was good to see some members from V&A join us, I hope we made you feel welcomed. Submitted by Sue Potter

TRIP TO GRANADA

We started our trip on a wet morning and the coach was late picking us up, but we arrived at our lunch stop at Rio Frio in a happy mood and what a lunch we had, 4 courses and when we came out the sun was shining. A free evening so most of us went out for drinks and here in Granada with a drink a free tapas not that we really wanted it as we were still full from lunch.

Next day a walking tour round Granada and a free afternoon. The red dust made everything muddy.

Wednesday we went to the Alpujarras, stopping at a chocolate factoryand a jamon curing place before stopping for a tapas lunch. A shame it was a cloudy day as we couldn't benefit from the lovely views that the restaurant had to offer.

Thursday, a trip to Guadix. A town with cave houses, some of which you could enter, and a cathedral.

Friday, home with a stop for coffee in Frigilliana and lunch at Finca Maria's.

A great week, enjoyed by all, thanks to Paco our driver Andy our guide and Di and Maggie for arranging. And also a big thank you to our Roving Reporter Sue Potter for all the photos and comments. Ed

ST PATRICK’S PARTY

A very lively group eating, drinking and singing along to all the best-known Irish songs.

Thanks to Tony and the members of the CantoLibre choir. Thanks also to Martin Holmes for providing us with the song sheets and playing guitar music to accompany them, and to those members who gave their own renditions of some special Irish ditties.
