Afternoon Tea and Good Company for Oddfellows at Windy Ridge Café
Members of the Oddfellows from Plymouth and South East Cornwall enjoyed a sociable afternoon tea gathering at the Windy Ridge Café in Trerulefoot, where members came together for food, conversation and good company in relaxed surroundings.
The event, which drew a good turnout, featured cake and sandwiches and a traditional cream tea that inevitably sparked light-hearted debate over the classic question of what should go first on a scone, jam or cream! Fortunately, harmony prevailed, with members agreeing that personal preference was the only rule that truly mattered.
The informal get-together provided an opportunity for members to catch up with friends, welcome familiar faces and enjoy a welcoming community atmosphere. With tea flowing and conversation in full swing, the afternoon was described as both enjoyable and well attended.
Speaking after the event, Brenda, who arranged the afternoon, said: “It was wonderful to see everyone together enjoying themselves. There was plenty of laughter, plenty of chatting and of course the usual friendly debate about cream teas. What matters most is that everyone had a lovely time and felt part of the group.”
Organisers thanked the staff at Windy Ridge Café for their hospitality and for helping to make the occasion a success with all looking forward to the next social gathering.
