Monstrous Movember 2016

4th December 2016

Over fifty souls were packed into Rootz Bistro in Main Parade Chorleywood for the annual Tiger Prostate Cancer Awareness Evening which was, as always, splendidly hosted by Phil and Cathy. The Friends of Prostate Sufferers Monstrous Movember as it was advertised this year, more than lived up to its name as Bobs Boys, all FOPS Singers, and Paul Jones’ Open Mikers entertained us regally as we ate delicious 'home made' watercress roulades, from the Chess, fresh tasty salads and pies and drank one glass or more glasses of bubbly.

After the interval we were all entranced by Donna and Mick Flinn singing a medley of their favourite songs, many being chosen from the New Seekers portfolio as they starred in this world famous group.

And then to the focal point of the evening. A huge screen came down masking the windows as a projector sprang into life and we were all treated to the film of The Mick Flinn Band performing Micks original song “Curl a Mo”.

When the last chords faded away there was a stunned silence and then everyone rose to their feet clapping and cheering and so Mick Flinn, the Star, was Born on Friday Movember night at Rootz... which will long be fondly remembered by all the fifty or more souls who were present...


Congratulations Phil and Cathy as Monstrous Movember 2016 was by far our very best FOPS Movember celebration and over £200 was donated to the FOPS for which we are so grateful...
