Many of you will already know that our Chairwoman, Dawn has sadly had to resign her position.
Ex-Chairwoman |
She has sold her house which was on the market for some considerable time and she and Jim have put their furniture into storage while they decide where they would like to live in the future. It has all happened very quickly as the buyers are keen to move into the house and we were all rather shell shocked when she announced her news at Tuesday’s lunch
Dawn worked incredibly hard as our Chairwoman for the nine months she was in office and has made some great advances for the club.
She was the club’s Treasurer the year 2012 and has been a very active member of LLC joining the garden group, book club and supporting the many activities within the various groups.
We will all miss her very much, her kindness, friendship and plain speaking Northern good advice!
We wish both Dawn and Jim all the very best. We are sure many of you would like to send your thanks and good wishes to them and will be organising a card for all those wishing to sign and a collection too for a little memento from the club.
We have taken up Ginster’s offer of help with the blog
is a response to a need for mutual support, companionship, friendship for those having made the “big move” and living in France in the Gascogne/Gers
With this additional assistance and the fact that the remaining events are just about organised at this late stage in the calendar the remaining committee have decided to continue without our Chairwoman.
The AGM is due in January 2014 when a new committee will be formed.

Until then…..
