On a cool Autumn evening the Alexandra Suite at Swanley was host to the Orpington Rovers 30th Annivesary Autumn Ball.

Entering the bar area and grabbing a glass of champagne, guests were invited to purchase Lucky Envelopes, hand stuffed by Tracy and her team. Lucky winners later ranged from a meal for two, superb football tickets to a flashing warning triangle, which for some unknown reason the lucky winner left behind.

Also check out the e-mail cirulated to all managers with some great pictures from early evening, from our resident professional photographer---anything later on has been deleted to protect the guilty and innocent!

The meal was fantastic and the speeches easily forgotten, but thanks to those who took part in the red/yellow card game.

Lastly, some of the dance moves on display reminded most of us of elderly giraffes trying to ice skate downhill in a hurricane- seriously it was a great dance off even Brucie would have been proud of.

The band were superb and the disco just finished the night off with real energy.

The carriages home arrived just in time and we look forward t o our next Ball in March 2011.

Thanks to all those who supported the Ball in these financially difficult times, especially to IPC and all those who managed to get extra raffle prizes.
