Wow! what a weekend we have just had.

It started off with a very special occasion after Shacharis on Friday morning where we had the rare opportunity and privilege to host a Pidyon Haben - redemption of the first born (click here for more info http://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/652310/jewish/Pidyon-Haben.htm).

On Shabbos morning we had a special Kiddush sponsored by the Yarm family to mark the impending Aliyah of their son Aaron who made a very nice speech at the end of the service.

To top it all off we had a fantastic crowd for the Chanukah supper quiz. The atmosphere was great and the fact that my table won was a real bonus.

So much work was put into this weekend by so many people, particularly the guild with the catering, which has left as all with a weekend that will live long in the memories.
