This week our coffee
morning guests on Monday were from Homely Petz, telling us about their
services and also looking for casual pet sitters & dog walkers. They
didn’t make it to the Tuesday coffee due to a major accident on t=
he
way from Dubai, but they’ll be there next week for sure!
After the callout last
week, thanx to those of you who have already offered us your unused
Entertainer Book golf vouchers – and if you haven’t already
emailed me, if you have some spare please let me know.
I’ll then organize to collect them (and may even be able to swap =
you
for other vouchers).
