    Double our Quoits again

    Assorted Tablers, F.A.R.T.s and 41ers descended on Beck Hole, near Goathland, on Tuesday 21 July for this, the second annual three-way challenge at the ancient game of Quoits.

    Tuscany Too meeting report 12 February 2015

    The evening spent at Tuscany Too began with Jim Hughes instructing me not to mention England’s rampant victory over Wales the previous weekend. So I won’t.
