Do you recognize this person? (whom it has to be said is not normally ‘CAMRA’ shy!) He stood on a stool to address our branch meeting and hence promote his forthcoming charity abseil off the Mott Hall in Colchester. This was taken in the Victory, Walton-on-Naze where our ‘Pub of the Year’ was announced. This picture of Tendring CAMRA members was taken at the Colchester Winter Festival. As you can see Congratulations to Mark and Sally at the White Hart, they are very much ‘at play’ whilst Colchester Weeley Heath upon being voted Tendring CAMRA 2015 members are working! ‘Pub of the Year’
