Ladies lunch at the Burlington 11 April 2013

11/4/2013

0 Comments

 
61 ladies attended the lunch and all seemed to enjoy themselves if the noise of the chatter was anything to go by!

Judy Narburgh managed to get a table of 12 ladies together which must be some sort of a record?

Well done Judy.

We discovered that there is car parking for us at any future lunch but you have to remember the number 4411 to punch in. The car park is on the corner of Sandown Road. We won’t need it in November as parking is free but some ladies have had to pay £3 to park  in April….free is best!

There was great interest in the memorabilia table and much more information was forthcoming so that the photographs we do have that were lacking names ....are now complete.

Jill Fearnley (nee Stolworthy)  brought some really nice photographs for us AND knew all the names. I will be putting them on the website and also making copies of them for our Archive.

Much to my personal delight she had a hockey team photo with me on it and then told me that I had played in the same team as  Pat Donaldson…. England Hockey Player! I couldn’t wait to tell my sportsman husband!

Shirley Palmer discovered that we had copies of her birthday parties in 1942,43 and 45. Sadly I couldn’t tell her where they came from. Perhaps someone out there knows?

More ladies have promised photographs which is very encouraging.

Patricia Yarham lives in Australia and would like to “Skype” us at the next luncheon. I will bring my laptop and see if we can manage that. She will have to get up in the middle of the night!

There was talk of a Speaker for the next meeting but that is under discussion at the moment….watch this space!

A very pleasant lunch was had by all.
