Hibernation

The Hotel Seattle @ Brighton Marina played host to Bear-Patrol's first annual Hibernation charity dinner.


We were greeted by the fabulous Miss Jason in the lounge area and served with fabulous cocktails and canapes.


Next we moved through to the Fremont Suite, where a Secret Raffle took place - guests were asked to look under their seat to locate a raffle ticket - a winning ticket was pulled out of the hat. They won a fabulous weekend break at at Avon Gorge Hotel  Bristol.


We all had a sumptuous lunch (lovely Turkey and Christmas Pudding were on offer) followed by Cabaret from Miss Jason and also Jennie Castell.


During a break in the Cabaret there was a Charity Auction hosted by TV Personality Mark Stacey.
