IMPORTANT NOTICE Meeting on Wednesday 14th December POSTPONED

 Meeting on Wednesday 14th December POSTPONED

Dear colleagues,

Several members have been in touch to say that the spell of poor weather and illness will prevent them from attending our Wednesday evening event, Little Dancer Aged Fourteen. As the talk was also a tribute to our late friend Jim Holland, who had been intending to take part, we have decided to postpone until early in 2023. We hope that the rescheduling will make it possible for as many members as possible to attend. We have also decided to supplement the talk with a Zoom recording so that those unable to attend, and those from further afield, can participate remotely.

May we take this opportunity to wish you all a peaceful Christmas. Joyeux Noël.

CfB
