our council chairman was in conversation with these two ladies and sadly i did not write down their names, hopefully susan will enlighten us?
tried to get a short of the ladies that done all the catering, endlessly replenishing the buffet and always with a pleasant demeanour.
just two finally gave in to my pleadings.

Jean and I were due to go to this too and were looking forward to it, sadly I had to send apologies, but not till about 4.30 this afternoon.
Looks like a good day; can someone enlighten us to the new services and facilities on offer there ?

Wish I could say yes she is Howard, sadly not. I don't know the answer, but the problems are getting her (both of us) down.

The giveaway is no hat, Sue!! It is great to hear about the developments at Riverside - Age UK is a fab organisation that does a great deal of good, decent work for elders, and therefore also for the community, as elders are, or should be, at the heart of the community. So a Hurrah for this.

Extra pictures now on the frontpage showing some of the familiar faces and trustees of the Riverside Centre. Had a gremlin earlier in my system but have at last managed to get it up and running fully. The centre was great last night. That was the first time I had ever been there so was delighted to see it, to see how it works and to see how friendly everybody was...my daughter Briony now in year 4 medical did some med work there previously over several days and they remembered her well and fondly which was nice.
