November 2024 in Devon Area

At the beginning of November, John and I joined North Devon Area for lunch and 10 Pin Bowling at Trethorne Leisure, which will be more fully described by Andy in his North Devon report. Suffice it to say, we were not covered in glory though I somehow managed a strike on my last end!
John and I really were short of words at our AGM in mid November! We were completely overwhelmed to be presented with this amazing collage [pic 1]of some of our maybe 'finest' moments (check the AO badge if you are not sure) put together by Lorraine Adams, together with a range of goodies which we are thoroughly enjoying. Cards from both North Devon Area members and South Devon! Thank you all so much.
Not only that, but a video message from Chris Gunby - and John has taken note of the final part of his message - pregnancy or death!
The Star was packed with members and we even had two Triumphs in the car park, Rob Lingardâ€™s recently acquired Vitesse and Steve Woollettâ€™s 2000.
We bandied ideas for our 2025 programme, finalised menus for Christmas, re-elected John and I as Area Organisers again and elected Jon Chartres to replace our current Treasurer
Alas Storm Bert scuppered our planned Inter Club Skittles at the Waie Inn. Cancelled in the interests of safety. Hope to re-arrange probably in the New Year. Means we get to keep the trophy for a few weeks longer though.
