Festive spirit shone as Peninsula Penultimates gathered for their annual festive Mid-Winter Christmas lunch at Smitty’s Bar N Grill on Monday, 27 July.
Smitty’s venue was adorned with beautiful, handmade Christmas decorations crafted by Julie Kipling. Many embraced the “Christmas bling” theme for the judging of the best-dressed categories. The winners were
• Best Dressed Woman: Carol Wood.
• Best Dressed Couple: John and Helen Parkinson.

The staff at Smitty’s challenged the group to a spirited round of Christmas Bingo. Congratulations went to Pauline Brown and Carol Wood, who emerged as the Bingo winners.
Everyone enjoyed a delicious meal followed by “super delicious” desserts. One of the members, Elaine Adamson, personally prepared the Christmas pudding.
The entire Smitty’s team was highly appreciated, contributing significantly to the success of the event.
The event, organized by President Bronwyn Macfarlane, offered an event filled with fun and the spirit of Christmas.
