We wish to start by expressing our sincere
thanks to all in the Weymouth and Portland Branch for hosting the South and
South West Area Reunion this year which should have been hosted by us.
Twelve of our members had a great day out at their event.
We are not as active as some branches, but we
are here and we have a regular meeting place at the Westcliffe Premier Inn.
We were entertained there recently by a retired Lancashire Chaplain who made
the subject of churches, towers, graveyards and tombstones sound
fascinating.
During the summer we enjoyed a minibus trip
through the New Forest. We visited various areas including the Portuguese
Fireplace, which is now a memorial to a Portuguese Army unit based there
during World War 1, before enjoying a cream tea at Milford on Sea. Jillian,
our Treasurer and Social Secretary, was the courier and persuaded her
husband to drive the minibus.
We are now looking forward to our first
Christmas Lunch at the Premier Inn.
