Hi all, I am still in shock at my good fortune, and more than a little embarrassed & disappointed at having to leave so soon after the draw. I was just getting warmed up too...! However, swimming lessons on a Sat morning with child no.1 with a hangover are not a good idea, so duty called. (Or before the locks were changed by the current Mrs Flanagan after 4 nights out of five out of the house last week! )
Anyway, enough BS from me: sincere thanks to Cyril, Tim and all involved in organising the night. I had a great night, and it was a really good to get to know some of the other club members at my table. I will be proposing more than just one night out during the year, at the next meeting in December, and the formation of a social committee - happy to chair said Social Committee if required, he he :) Special thanks to Mervyn Shannon, who I called with on Saturday to get the watch sized - he was an absolute gentleman to me and my family, and I would encourage all club members to support him, in whatever way you can. Thanks again, and I look forward to a even more successful NIIMC in 2014.
