Yesteryear Luncheon
03 Nov 2017
On Friday 16th June, 2017 Combined Probus Club of Gunnedah held a luncheon themed “Yesteryear”.
Trudy and Barbara were on the door and dressed in 1920’s style thus setting the scene.
The tables were decorated with gum leaves and wine bottles which had candle waxed dripped down the side – remember those?
Members brought along many interesting and very old items for display which included photos, books, diaries, hand stitched clothing, crotched items, jewellery, sterling silver, recipe books, kitchen aids and utensils, sulky lamp, notes and coins, sheet music, to name a few of the exhibits which jogged our memories and some of us are still using.
Committee members provided their wedding photos and only two members were able to correctly identify all brides, they knew the grooms!
A mystery item to appeal to the men was sent around for identification. Only one member recognised the small periscope.
A most enjoyable outing indeed for those members who were able to attend.
