Season’s greetings, a couple of (other) birthdays, a surprise visit and a tune… Thanks to all volunteers -the floor sweepers, chair stackers, welcome desk, kitchen staff, banner supervisor, book keeper, technical support, Ann the scone supremo, the fabulous musicians, the terrific conductor, so many enthusiastic singers- and we’ll all come back on… 1 February 2024

The week finished with a very special morning at St Andrew’s (aka Barrie and Claire’s place) dedicating the new bench seat to Claire. Big thanks to the Hughes Pre-school, the Virtue Family and staff at St Andrew’s.
