Sorry this week’s
newsletter is so late – I must have the worst luck with laptops; both of
mine died this week (even my new one!!), so please bear with me.
Have you booked your place
at the free La Brioche afternoon tea next Tue? There are still some spots
left – but be quick! Details below (and attached). Or if you’re interested
in Ayurveda therapies, Sharanis Wellness Spa is holding a Discover Ayurveda
open day next Tue (see attached for more details).
Also don’t forget to let Jacqueline know if you’d
like to attend any field trips and / or Xmas lunch.

Here’s a great idea from
one of our members… Don’t you love having flowers in your house but hate
the fact that they never last long enough (or maybe you’re allergic)? And
fake flowers get so dusty here after awhile! The solution… Flower Genie
provides silk floral art that is replaced monthly. See attached brochures
for more info.
