I am writing with news of the next West Country Outsiders event, it will be a lunch at the Parkway Taverners, Bristol on Tuesday March 25th, details below. As you know, Ann Hulme worked hard last year running West Country events for Outsiders, with a variety of events on offer. I have now taken over that role from Ann for the next year, and I am keen to hear your views about what sort of events you would like to see happen in 2008.
At the AGM last year, it was suggested that we run an event in Cheltenham to combine the Midlands and West Country groups, that event will be on Saturday April 19th, details to be circulated soon. I hope you will be able to join us on March 25th, hopefully transport will be easier to manage as it is a weekday and services such as Dial-a-Ride will be available. Please contact me via this email or phone 07505 606408 if you would like more information. Likewise, if you want to come but are having transport difficulties, get in touch and I will do what I can to help.
Looking forward to hearing from you and/or seeing you on the 25th.
Best wishes,
Katie Wiltshier
