Comments to GES
Ironically Julie and I were both ill before the event, so neither of us felt our best and actually considered cancelling the meeting, but decided that some people would already be on their way.
As is was the excellently attended meeting had 16 representatives from England, Wales and Scotland.
This photo file captures most of those attending.
The meeting started shortly after 12 noon and finished after a buffet lunch in the mid afternoon.
Feedback has been excellent and the newly elected executive hope to get the charity application off within the next couple of weeks.
Apart form being ill the weekend marked my penultimate birthday before retirement and the Glyn Kids were down for the weekend - apart from indee who had Uni examinations.
