Just got the first of the NRAS magazine for 2010 and so far I love it! I'm just up to page 11 where Ann (monty) has her write up for the 2009 get together.... I'm soooo looking forward to this years get together and I'm intrigued by the calendar girls idea Anyone else got theirs?

It is a great Newsletter this time. Particularly because we finally got our write-up about the 2009 get-together in. Well, the article is better late than never. But they made a good job of it and I didn't think they would put all the photos in. I just gave them a few to choose from ! Anyway, it does give 'newbies' an idea of the place and what a wonderful lot we are  It occurred to me that there are a lot of members who do not use the Forum who would not know about the get-together. I contacted Head Office and have written a 'flyer' for them to put in with anything they are sending out to members, inviting them to join us. We'll see whether we get any more coming this time. Wouldn't it be nice to fill the room - can you imagine the buzz?! Ann "I cannot do everything. I accept that. Not being able to do everything is no excuse for doing nothing." ~ Helen Keller
