Architecture for Fun 28/3/24 Canal Boat Cruise

Due to unanticipated demand , it has been necessary to add one additional canal boat

Therefore there will be two separate trips , one at 12 noon and one at 2.30pm . There is now availability for 48 members to take the trip , 24 at 12 noon and 24 at 2.30pm. The coach for the 12 noon trip will leave Maghull Square at 11.20am and the coach for the 2.30pm trip will leave at 1.50pm (times are approximate)

I have 19 members ( some added off the reserve list) who have yet to pay. Payment is  required urgently as I have 2 members on the reserve list.who will be given consideration for a place if payments are not made shortly. I have split the 48 members currently on the list into 4 groups of 12 (24 for 12noon and 24 for 2.30approx.)

Please text me on 07826 048379 if either of the times is unacceptable  or if discussion is required.

Lost Keys

Thankfully . a member contacted me by telephone this morning advising me that she had found a set of keys in her bag recently

She requested as to what was included and when I gave he a description , car fob , house keys and several tags , she confirmed that the keys she had matched the description

This has eased our minds as the precautions that we have had to take whilst on holiday for 5 days and then 10 days have been somewhat onerous

Thankfully Maureen and I can rest easy now that we can get back to living normally whilst out and about and not worrying about my car being taken away whilst we are asleep

Thanks again to the member for eventually finding the keys in her possession and informing us

Architecture for Fun and Wine Tasting

Further to my post of 26/09 I have still not had the return of a bunch of keys that went missing at the coffee morning on 26/09

If any member mistakenly picked up the keys from my desk or found them around the hall (I have personally inspected several times all the areas that I had been in that morning without success) , I have agreed with Darren , the Administration Assistant for the Baptist Church that if any member has the keys but is too embarrassed to take them to the coffee morning , they can be put them in an envelope and post this through the front entrance to the Baptist Church

I can be contacted by text or telephone on 07826 048379

There were certain members who , basically , where there on there own but everybody made them feel most welcome

Once again , many thanks for your continued support
