Dear Brethren All,
May I start by wishing you all a Healthy and Happy New Year.
Well here we are at the start of another year, let us hope that things might become more tolerable and we can, perhaps, get towards some normality again. I trust that you were all able to enjoy the Christmas Festivities as you had planned. We were lucky in that between the 22nd December and Boxing Day were had the good fortune of seeing and being with our children at some time. We were well looked after and I did not have to do any cooking, although low in numbers, by design, each time we met, we felt the benefit of a supportive family. We did celebrate Pat’s birthday on the 1st January and requested that the family, those who could attend, stagger their visits, which they were able to do. It meant a long day but it was very enjoyable.
