THE LADIES WHO LUNCH

The LADIES WHO LUNCH will continue to meet on the first Wednesday of the month

The LADIES WHO LUNCH - who raise funds for Paul Cunningham Nurses and various other charities, recently held their third annual Christmas lunch at Stan & Ollie's restaurant in El Raso.

66 people attended and enjoyed a first class meal. Special thanks to Dorothy Benson from Lo Marabu - who helped boost the coffers to €377.71 on the day by selling ALL the raffle tickets - she is seen in the attached photograph getting a well deserved hug from Papa Noel who made a surprise visit and presented all the ladies with a little gift.

€104 of the total amount raised was for a litre bottle of Rioja Crianza wine kindly donated by John from Giovanni's restaurant in Almoradi - this was won by Liz Price showing her obvious delight in the attached picture.

Entertainment for the afternoon was provided by Paul Christie, the Costa Blanca's version of Gene Pitney, who sang for his supper.

The LADIES WHO LUNCH will continue to meet on the first Wednesday of the month in 2013 at different restaurants each month when they will carry on raising even more money for local charities.
