http://www.punjab.co.uk
The Nomads post season CurryFest was held at the Punjab Restaurant Neal Street Covent Garden WC2H 9PA Thursday November 22nd 2018 with many congregating beforehand at the White Lion Pub 24 James Street Covent Garden WC2E 8NS. We were scheduled to be 42 but with two 'No Shows', one delayed at Lisbon airport, three down with the dreaded lurgie and another who left the pub to attended an afflicted spouse it was a good that we had an extra 'unexpected' and so finished on 36.
A very enjoyable evening it was with the traditional toasts being given to Sidney Caulfield, Granny Alston and our recently departed President Emeritus David Alexander. Further orations were made by Club skipper Tom Brockton and also Bill Johnson.Most pleasing was the re-emergence of Nomad Divraj Rattan as manager who looked after us splendidly.
The evening was concluded at the nearby Craft Beer Company.
