Greetings
and good wishes from the members of the Ulster Branch. In December, a
number of us went along to the pantomime in the Grand Opera House, Belfast
which we enjoyed very much. Some of our members come from quite far away
and one lady in particular, Ruby, comes from Newcastle, Co Down. I always
worry a little in case Ruby will have problems getting to Belfast, but when
I went to look for her, there she was in the Opera House restaurant tucking
into a large plate of Shepherds Pie – well done, Ruby. You are our little
ray of sunshine. The show as usual was quite wonderful and we enjoyed our
usual treats of Baileys and chocolates. We all look forward very much to
our Pantomime treat each year.
Our Annual Reunion Luncheon was held in
Beechlawn Hotel in Dunmurry in February. We had quite a good attendance and
once again the Hotel provided a superb meal with plenty of choice and
excellent service. Following the meal we had a Bring & Buy Sale and
Raffle. We all enjoy occasions like this when we can meet up with old
friends and catch up with the gossip. It is just rather a pity that more of
our members couldn’t make an effort to attend.
There is still quite a lot of illness among
our members and we wish them all a speedy return to good health. We are
looking forward to having them back with us in the near future.
I would like to wish all WRAC Association
members a great summer and if you have holidays organised, I hope you have a
wonderful time and good weather. |
