This is an account of Branch activities since the last
report after the AGM in London in 2008. A lovely ‘outside eating experience’
was held at Janet Herdman’s garden in July. Due to transport difficulties
the September meeting was held on Sunday 31 August in Jean Farrington’s
garden, followed by an excellent lunch – we had the pleasure of the company
of Margaret from the Canterbury Branch. Three members had a good time at the
WRAC Dinner Club weekend in Liverpool.
In October we met up with the Norfolk Branch,
our Area Chairman Patricia Stevenson and Liz Ives from Ipswich, for a lunch
at the Linden Tree in Bury St Edmunds – my thanks to Lyn Hatch for
organising. Our Christmas Dinner was held at The University Centre in
Cambridge and the January and February meetings had to be cancelled because
of inclement weather.

Wendy Hooton, Avril Williams and newfound
friend at the Grand Reunion
A fantastic time was had at the Grand Reunion
at Blackpool and I met up with several ladies I served with at Guildford 31
years ago! As a result of meeting up at the Grand Reunion, we now have three
new attendees at our meetings. Welcome to Jean Legg and Pam Sussex (ex
Postal) and Joan Ellis (ex Band). Our 28th
AGM was held on Tuesday 6 April.
