Normal Stuff

GOMER (Grumpy Old Men and Early Retirees (voluntary or otherwise)) is a group of men who meet for coffee at Madeline's at 10am on Monday mornings. Some of us meet at 9:10 for a gentle walk around the lake before coffee.

It began when two men became in-voluntary Early Retirees, due to injury, and a couple of Old Men took them out for coffee. It has grown to a regular attendance over 20, our own reserved table, and staff being well trained to look after us.

Contact DavidMorgan for further information, help with transport etc.

We were recently presented with this notice.

Tenth anniversary

Below is the photo of the 30 of us singing "happy birthday to us".
