Can those who are definitely coming please post here.
A few more volunteers could save the day!
Early in November, I made an arrangement with an associate of mine in Cyprus (who intended to spend the Christmas Holiday in the UK) to forward £100.00 in cash to Miltiades, together with a personal communication, I know that the said associate is in possession of my instructions and awaits confirmation of the event at 'The Carob Tree'.
The cash is intended as a gift to those members attending (a 'Festive Drink' with my 'Best Wishes' perhaps).
In the event of the meeting being cancelled (which I sincerely hope it is not) and since time is now running out, I intend to instruct my associate to forward the package of communication to Miltiades nonetheless (since the enclosed missive is of more importance to me) and leave the disposal of the cash to the discretion of the good fellow.
My opportunities to make contact are erratic and sometimes very brief, therefore, may I at this early stage, forward my 'Best Wishes' to ALL members for the coming season ?.
I DO hope that we will ALL be survivors of the 'Mayan Prophesies', if NOT, my 'Cash' and 'Communication' will be consigned to the 'Cosmos' (also with my 'Best Wishes' and whatever successes or failures did mould our eventful lives.) .............Schnauzer x
Thank you for your very generous donation to our lunch meeting Schnauzer, it looks like it may be put to better use since our number is down to four and I have proposed that we postpone until next year. I'm sure that Milti will make sure your cash goes to a good cause.
If we can arrange a meeting when you are next in UK we'll each buy you a drink or two.
Have a good Christmas.
