Well, we had a fantastic celebration of our 40 years at our Ruby Party on 15th October.<\/p>\n
We were joined by our founder members, many ex-members from over the years and many friends, old and new. There was singing and dancing, and heaps of good food – all red, of course and including a fabulous birthday cake.<\/p>\n
We started the evening with cocktails and after a welcome entertainment we sat down to our splendid meal. \u00a0There may have been more singing between courses.<\/p>\n
After dinner we had a very stylish parade of Ruby hats. This was followed by the highlight of the evening – we danced Jockey to the Fair with all of the ex-glories that were there – brilliant!<\/p>\n
We also had other competitions – who could recognise the Glory baby and who could identify all the other sides we had danced with over the years? \u00a0There was a table for sharing memories and a display of old Glory kit.<\/p>\n
Most of all there were good friends wherever you looked.<\/p>\n
Here’s to the next 40 years!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
