Christmas is almost here. You children's entertainers will be preparing for the busy season, I hope. I have just been reading the member profiles on our website. There are several names to which I cannot put faces. We should include a photo shoot in one of our meetings. This will enrichen the website and tighten our friendships, If you have not visited the site yet, you are missing a treat. Its Alex's masterpiece. We are so lucky to have a mixture of professionals in our membership. Paul Sunderland has emailed me a copy of his and Steve Naylor's lecture notes he intends to use at the Leeds University. Not only are they expertly produced, but also they are informative and entertaining. I think they probably have the makings of a commercial enterprise here. We have some exciting events prepared for 2006. We must thank Ivan your entertainments officer and the rest of the committee. We would welcome your input and indeed attendance at committee meetings as co-opted members. I feel that it would be a good idea for all members to attend at least one of these meetings. In this way you can see how much hard work goes into running your club. This might just shake the unresponsive into a bit of action and keep our ideas fresh. Now is the time to start thinking about the AGM. Any points of opinion may be presented. Eat, drink and be merry. Have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all God bless |
