A record 28 members attended the annual event at Bickleigh Mill near Tiverton on November 15th and were able to enjoy not only coffee or tea and cakes free of charge but also the beautifully stocked shop there full of tempting Christmas gifts. Most of the group stayed on for lunch (at their expense) and the visit was voted a great success ahead of the forthcoming (and heavily subsidised) Christmas Lunch at the Victoria Hotel Sidmouth.
