We were lucky to have the chance, once again, to see The Moonrakers back at Wesley Memorial, in another concert with proceeds going to the Open Doors Project.
Here are some of the Phab members, watching Moonrakers setting up.

Things we do in the club
Normal club -and hockey in the Hall
Our club night was enlivened by a new mini pool table, kindly donated by Tanya.
As well as our usual cups of tea, we played Hockey in the Hall.
We did not play the official Floorball rules, but members came in and picked up a stick and joined in !
Warning, the video above was taken whilst playing – do not watch if you get seasick !
This is how it looked as a spectator a little later.
We had a great time, and enjoyed making use of the space.
Pantomime – Cinderella at Oxford Playhouse
Did we enjoy our traditional trip to the Pantomime at Oxford Playhouse ?
Oh no we did’nt
Oh Yes we Did !!!
As in previous years we cheered the hero, booed the villain and generally entered into the spirit of things.
Christmas Party with Disco
We had our Christmas Party and Disco in the newly refurbished Hall at Wesley Memorial Church.
We also had some surprise visitors, and a birthday bonus !
We did some serious discoing
After this Phab do not meet again until the the Pantomime on January 6th.
Another event to look forward to in January will be the Moonrakers concert on January 27th – tell your friends and family, who can book tickets via Oxford Playhouse.
Christmas meal at Hinksey Heights Golf Club
We were made very welcome at the Clubhouse of the Hinksey Heights Golf Course, where Mary (from the Golf Club, not Oxford Phab Mary) and her team cooked and served a delicious meal.
We all enjoyed it tremendously and look forward to a continuing relationship with the Golf Club.
Christmas Bingo
We played Bingo – redistributing the chocolates we bring as prizes – as well as drinking hot berry cordial and eating warmed mince pies – lovely on a chilly night.
Bowling at The Hollywood Bowl
We ate at Ozone Plaice, having put in an order in advance for our selection of fish and chips, sausage and chips etc.
We then bowled at The Hollywood Bowl.
Zumba for Children in Need
We joined an energetic crowd at The Christian Life Centre on Cowley road for an evening of Zuma, with Phab performing a routine we first learnt with George Martini at Phab a few weeks ago.
We had a great time, as well as raising money for Children in Need.
Banbury Phab Halloween Disco
We were invited, and very happy to go, to Banbury Phab’s Halloween Disco. As well as a disco they served burgers and hot dogs.
They also had a Halloween themed fancy dress competition and two of our members, entering as a team, came second !
Hot dogs, Hot chocolate and games
As the weather becomes colder, and the evenings darker, it is time for some warming and tasty food.
We ate hot dogs, and cake, and drank – amongst other options – hot chocolate with marshmallows.
Afterwards as well as our normal chatting some of us played the card game Sevens.
