This year was also disrupted by Covid but there have been highlights. The Zoom Bingo Night with our French friends was tremendous fun. The Barbecue gave everyone a chance to meet up and catch up with all the news. Chris's Beaujolais Night was a very enjoyable evening..
Let us hope and pray that 2022 is more of a normal year and that we have a successful trip to France. In this newsletter you will find a survey asking you about France next year. Please fill this in as soon as you can and let's assume that we will be allowed to travel.
We all had our Christmas disrupted by Covid last year.
So, Let us also hope for a more normal Christmas this year.
So wishing you a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year.
See you all at the AGM on Friday 14th, January!
