In aid of The Friends of Court Farm - Garden Archaeology project
Hi
On the chilli winter night of 5thFebruary 2014 the Friends of Court Farm enjoyed a delicious selection of hot curries at the Masala Indian Restaurant in West End, Llanelli. The evening was held to raise much-needed money which will help towards the maintenance, preservation and development of Court.
In all around 80 people were welcomed warmly by our esteemed Chairman, Dominic Conway who thanked everyone for coming and making the evening such a success. He also thanked the Masala for the opportunity they had afforded to the Friends in their fundraising endeavours. Every one enjoyed the buffet – the choice and quality of food was exceptional. A raffle was held which further increased the takings on the night and a big thank you is extended to all those who donated prizes. After this enjoyable evening in February we are having another curry night in the Massala restaurant in aid of the garden project. |
