Well done everyone for getting this far.... Happy New Year.
So many messages I have seen are along the lines of "Well, it can only get better". Well, it HAS got better. It's stopped raining for one thing - so now we have snow!
Last year gave us a new appreciation of friends and family, and the great outdoors. Do you know, there are some daffodils out in a garden near us, and, I am told, in Heaton Park (Manchester). Also a chance to save some money (and help reduce pollution) by not zooming around so much except on Zoom, where the world comes to the comfort of our living rooms. And "work" which wasn't hands-on was done without a tedious commute.
The upcoming social at GSC before everything shut down, was to have been Helen Loxam doing a tour of the dock, then friday fish&chips in the clubhouse, followed by Helen giving an illustrated talk. That was last April. Shall I see if she can "Zoom" it? Or try again for this April? We have had some good GSC Zoom sessions, and some not so good. It's no good if people just sit there staring at a camera (we know what we look like) - it relies on a few people joining in (thanks Colin, Big John, Mick B, Duncan, Ann "Chorley" John, and anyone else who has contributed or done a quiz).
The Glasson Girls have had some good Zooms, but then women do natter on a bit, and keep it going. Like me now. So I'll stop right there.
