SWAG: a treasure to experience in Snettisham each month

Locals gather for the Snettisham Wednesday Afternoon Get-together - and say more of the same please!

With a successful year of SWAG get togethers at the Snettisham Royal British Legion Hall, the “fourth Wednesday of the month” is fast becoming a date not to be missed as a regular monthly event in the village.

With some 30 attendees enjoying the social and chatty atmosphere, as well as opportunities to play card games, dominoes, cribbage, scrabble, shove halfpenny or floor games such as Skittles and Hoopla, or in fact just to sit with old and new friends enjoying a complimentary cuppa and biscuits supplied by the Snettisham Co-op, the general view was everyone was happy, had a wonderful time and looked forward to the next SWAG...with feedback of “more of the same please”.

After one meeting Eric Langford, SWAG organiser, said it was an absolute delight to attend SWAG, as he recalled watching a demure lady playing Hoopla and “fisting the air in triumph” when scoring two “25 points” in a row. The overall positive vibe in the Hall was infectious and helped promote an air of happiness all round all SWAG participants. Still very popular are the “part finished” jigsaw challenges for individuals / couples to complete as well as “word search” puzzles.

Entry is free so please come along and enjoy biscuits and a “cuppa”, as well as the opportunity for a nice social chat amongst good company.

The next SWAG events will take place at 2pm – 4pm on Wednesday, 28^th August, and on Wednesday 25^th September, at the Royal British Legion Hall, Church Road, Snettisham.

Thereafter on each fourth Wednesday of the month.
