Ferring Probus Club - Film afternoon and tea, June 2025

The first Probus Afternoon Tea was held at the Arlington Hotel on 29 April 2025. The weather was beautiful as befits a quintessentially afternoon tea and the venue was a perfect setting for a timeless tradition. On arrival the guests settled down to cups of tea and very tasty finger sandwiches – beef and horseradish, smoked salmon and egg and cress. Beautiful individual cakes of lemon drizzle and chocolate iced sponge graced the tables. The crowning glory was delicious light scones served warm with strawberry jam and clotted cream. A very enjoyable afternoon was spent chatting to other members and some guests. The President, David Gibbs, thanked Beryl Short for arranging the event and the round of applause showed how much this had been appreciated. All too soon the afternoon ended, and we left in the glorious Spring sunshine, happy and replete.
