Club Chairman Derren Midson praised everyone for their efforts.

He said: "Some of our guests hadn’t seen each other for two years so there was joyous emotion amongst so many, everyone left with smiles and full bellies which made the day all the more worthwhile.

"Most of our guests have invited themselves back for next year already!"
