Sally Harris joins the nonagenarian club

Congratulations to Sally Harris who has joined our growing band of nonagenarians.

Thanks to Vicki McCoy for making cakes for celebrating this on Wednesday.

I should like to thank the club members and the committee properly for the gorgeous basket of flowers and the very precious card with everyone's signature. What a delightful surprise! I was quite overwhelmed!

It is such a friendly club with a good standard of Bridge. I'm so lucky to be a member.

Thankyou again to everyone and best wishes

Sally Harris
