CONGRATULATIONS to Alison for completing the London Marathon in 4 hours 12 minutes and 7 seconds and for raising £600 for charity.   I think I would still be trying to get to the finish line, now! 

 

JACK – I think most of you knew and have met Jack the Dog.  He was quite a character within the Fulcrum Group and came on many walks with us.  Unfortunately, old age, arthritis and diabetes crept up and he could no longer do the walks.  On 17 March he finally gave up his walking pads for good and died.  He is greatly missed and is lovingly remembered.

 

SPECIAL REQUEST.  Please could I have your ideas for the Summer programme by 26 July 2010 by e-mailing me on the above address.    Without members suggesting and hosting the events, the group would not be a success so please put the 26 July in your diaries now.  If you have missed the deadline but have an idea for an event, please let me know and we can put it on the website and e-mail those on the Google group.

 

Thank you to those who have sent in events for this programme, and also a big thank you to all those who hosted an event on the last programme. 

 

For confidentiality reasons the telephone numbers have been removed from the programme but if you are interested in an event and have lost your programme, please contact me for more information.  There is an associated email group you can join for late postings to be sent direct to you.

 

I look forward to seeing you at future events.
