IT'S been a warm welcome from all LGCC members who've been able to enjoy the new picnic benches adorning the patio area at The Green.

Of softwood construction, the benches are ideal for enjoying a drink and a chat alongside fellow members while making the most of the best the rest of the British summer has to offer.

And they also give an ideal view of the cricketing action taking place on the other side of the patio wall at LGCC.

Thanks to all those involved in both sourcing and then constructing the benches ready for use - a great addition at The Green.
