The LOI Supper was a great success, attended by around 20 guests and £160.00 was raised towards the Lodge Centenary meeting November 2013.

Michael and Penny I's festival weekend is proving to be very popular and the initial target of 60 guests has been achieved so far. Please contact Martin W to secure your places. A deposit of £40.00 per head is now required. (Payable to Martin W) The balance of £125.00 should be paid before the 18 February 2010. Guests are also welcome to attend the Saturday night banquet and room and breakfast for £120.00 per person.

W Bro Derek H has had a very successful knee replacement and can't wait to show it off at the January meeting. Irish jigs have been temporarily suspended until the Ladies Weekend. I can tell you all that Derek now looks like a completely new person.

The LOI will commence Tuesday 12 January 2010 at 7.00pm

Date of next meeting Saturday 6 March 2010.
