Committee meetings are made less onerous by the mountains of cakes and biscuits that seem to appear at each meeting.  Competition for the best spread is becoming quite fierce!!  The committee work hard for the members, but know how to enjoy themselves too...

Felix is a well-known author and took over writing the ‘Dick Francis’ books from his father, the legendary author and royal jockey. Felix’s first novel, Under Orders, went to the top of the bestseller lists on both sides of the Atlantic in autumn 2005. Since then he has produced a new bestseller each year set around the exciting world of horse racing.

Felix lives near Banbury with his wife, Debbie, and two red setters. A keen racing and cricket supporter, Felix is a member at Cheltenham, of the MCC and the Lord’s Taverners, as well as of the Crime Writers Association, the International Thriller Writers and the Detection Club.
