As usual we like to have something unique for our draw prize and Gibraltar Crystal have made us a fantastic commemorative bowl. Gibraltar Crystal is situated in Casemates square and 3 of our Torrington Friends, Paul Alexander (Zoony), Stuart Shute and Stuart Quick, make the crystal which is shipped all over the world.
10 cavaliers travelled to Gibraltar last weekend for a hand over ceremomy of the bowl outside the factory and showroom;
Pictured are (from L to R): Andrew Morris (Captain), Kevin Marchant, Stuart Stacey, Darren West, Mark Keeley (Vice Chairman), Darren Nudds, Paul Alexander, Steve Blake, Stuart Shute, Andy Pitcher, Simon Matthews, Stuart Quick and Adam Pike.
We then walked to the Fire Station (Trumpton) for a photo;
and then up the rock to see the view and the 4 wise monkeys!
It was a hard climb so afterwards we headed to the Lord Nelson, Casmates Square for the rest of the day, evening, morning..........;
We had an international, well Cavaliers v Gibraltar, darts match which we lost 2:1 and zoony and his band played on Friday evening.
Sunday was our trip home:
Our thanks go to Gibraltar Crystal, Zoony and the 2 Stuarts, Stevie Palmer who took us to where we wanted to go, Zoony`s band for a fanastic evening and to all my fellow cavalier friends for a fabulous weekend in Gibraltar.
Draw tickets are now on sale in many places in and around Torrington including the bonfire site, they will also be onsale on the website soon.
