Participants arrived at 10am and enjoyed morning coffee before settling down to play.

The Lions ‘club’ then played an ace and prepared a roast beef lunch for the Bridge players to enjoy.

After the participants had enjoyed their repast, they returned to play their final games prior to afternoon tea and departure.

The Lions have a few more tricks up their sleeves, with a Plant Sale on May 12 at the Lions Den in Coningsby when, after putting their ‘spades’ to good use, they hope to provide a variety of plants and seedlings to enhance your garden.

A Beer Festival will be held on the weekend of August 3 and 4 in Tattershall Village Hall.
