On a final note, Steve Belham, who with his good friend Frank attend the the Fenman & Eastgate functions, donated a desk top game to be auctioned on the night. We weren't able to get it down on the night but thanks to the power of Social Media it was advertised the day after the event by my Daughter and was purchased by a local Play Group for £40.
