what a lovely afternoon we all had. :) shirley and barbara were great and im sure they enjoyed themselves as well. :thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
Today I spent the afternoon at the Bartons Arms in the company of the nicest group of people you could wish to meet.
We were there to meet Shirley and Barbara who had traveled all the way from Canada.
It made me feel humble that someone had traveled all that way and taken the time and effort to spare some of their precious time with us.
Everyone was in great spirits and we really enjoyed each others company.
I hope that both ladies will take back with them, the great sense of friendship and belonging that was shared by everyone.
This site goes from strength to strength and its all down to you wonderful Members

Thank you one and all.
