Social Friends celebrated its quarter century birthday with a Back to School party at a local community centre in Hemel Hempstead. 

Lots of our members joined in the spirit of the evening and delighted the organisers by embracing their old school days and dusting off their school uniforms. 

​There was a great variety of outfits including our very own Head Mistress and even DJ Dan joined in with the fun becoming our Sports Teacher, whistle and all!!  Take the opportunity to look at our gallery page for more fantastic pictures!

Social Friends members are always game for a laugh and no school disco would be complete without school dinners.  Everyone queue very nicely under the watchful eye of our Head Mistress and enjoyed a tasty fish & chip supper.  Not forgetting the great job done by one of our ladies providing each table with some awesome retro sweets.
​

No party is complete without games.  Balloons featured very heavily in our first game with couples getting together to see who could be the first to burst all their balloons, easy I hear you say but not when you cannot use your hands or feet!!  Hysterical fun followed.  Fitting in with the theme the winning couple received some great retro Beano annuals.

Party games still on the agenda we followed this with a traditional game of musical chairs, they say the old ones are the best and everyone had a great time cheering on the contestants.  The rest of evening was spent dancing the night away to some great tunes and generally having a terrific time.
​

We are pleased to report no detentions were given, all school reports at the end of the evening were amazing and everyone is now looking forward to our next Social Friends event.

The Blue Check in Bushey is a large, vibrant restaurant offering a varied menu and which recently played host to a great Social Friends event. 

​A group of our members enjoyed an evening of marvellous musical entertainment provided by a very talented Frank Sinatra tribute act plus a very tasty meal.

​William Byrne provides the ever popular live music including “Sinatra”. He performs with passion some of the very best of Sinatra’s songs including ‘My Way’, ‘For Once in my Life’ and ‘Paris Summer’.

The whole group very impressed with the whole evening and there maybe even a return visit in the future.

Well We Do Like to be Beside the Seaside!!

​A large coach bursting at the seams with Social Friends members recently went on a day trip to Clacton on Sea.  The journey to Clacton went very smoothly helped by a very entertaining driver and many members indulging in our raffle.  Some lucky members even winning a few pennies to spend on the attractions in Clacton!

​You are never too old to enjoy a day by the seaside and many of our members were pleasantly surprised at what Clacton on Sea had to offer!  We were very lucky to have a very sunny warm day [especially as this was a bank holiday weekend] which gave a few of us the ideal opportunity to go for a quick dip in the sea whilst others took a stroll along Clacton Pier – who could resist reliving childhood memories with a go on the amusements and rides. 

Picture

​Clacton On Sea boasts a very clean beach and after hours of playing on the Pier, Fish & Chips by the sea was next on the agenda.

After a very enjoyable lunch many of us took the land train to Holland On Sea and then back to Clacton's Pier for a well-deserved cuppa or something a bit stronger, cheers!

Picture
At the end of a very enjoyable day by the sea the troops boarded our coach for the journey home singing along to a few songs and signing up for our next very special coach trip to Rochester Christmas Market which is due to take place in early December.  Watch this space for the next instalment of our fun events …….
