21st Coach to visit La Zenia boulevard and then on to Torrevieja. 

October

Quiz transferred  to El Poli, along with a new format in that we held it in the day time and rather than a basket meal we had a full M del Dia, changing the title to the ‘Quiz del dia‘ !! 

November

Due to the timing of the event -the Feria de Todos Santos – the trip which would have taken place in October, was held over to 4 November. We went to the town of Cocentaina to visit an enormous town market.  This is another event which will be repeated, due to popular requests, in 2024 so make a note!!

The Remembrance Sunday service took place on 12th November, with the service starting at 12.15. Afterwards a lunch was held at Meson Tonet, starting at 13.45, as has been the custom in previous years.

A coach trip going to Benidorm Palace for the 9th December. The coach is all but full but I could squeeze 6 more persons on, so please contact me if you are interested .
