A rainy day but that didn’t matter as we had 24 members today. Lisa welcomed our new members Olga and Jose and new visitors Susan and John. It was also lovely to see our volunteers Melvyn and Annette and our Rotary volunteers Valerie from Rotary Club Golders Green and also one of our Trustees and Helen from Rotary Northwick Park.

Members had a lovely chat together and then Lisa asked then introduced the programme for today giving members some hints to make sure they were on Speaker view.

There was no James le Bec today as he was on holiday for a week so Lisa and Mark prepared a Karaoke with a Twist Show for 30 minutes. It was a sing-a-long with a twist which everyone really enjoyed. There were a number of favourites including ABBA and Elvis Presley which got everyone up and dancing. In fact members feedback loved what we did so much they now want us to do this weekly.

Richard our chair Yoga instructor was ready and waiting as soon as the Karaoke finished and as usual everyone enjoys the exercises with Richard as they are great fun. Richard then does a short general knowledge quiz after the Yoga and the winners for the quiz today were jointly Chris and Gina and Muriel and Ivor. Thank you Richard.

Lisa then continued and just gave a quick reminder to everyone about the new group chat session on Tuesday 25th August and then read two funny short stories which everyone found very amusing. Lisa then called out the Bingo numbers and reminded everyone that this was a new game today. The Bingo winner today was Helen and Chrystalla. Well done to them. A big thank you today to Mark our technical support engineer making sure the Karaoke session went smoothly.
