Caryl Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 All have arrive safely, except for Sue Fleet. She had an unfortunate accident and is have to have her arm plastered (broken in 2 places) and her wrist operated on and a plate inserted :tears: We wish you a speedy recovery Sue. Friday night was a get-together at the hotel with drinks and nibbles. Thanks to Warren for supplying some Hell's Pizzas for the exec so we had fuel before our meeting. The hotel is lovely and the conference room excellent for our needs. BFRC chose well :love: We spent the evening catching up with old friends and putting faces to forum names - my favourite part. Hopefully I will be adding to the rogues' gallery when I get home. Am on a Vodafone stick so limited in data transfer. AGM starts soon. Good thing we are inside as it is very windy (has been all night, and been raining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Fleet Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 :roll: Was walking dog in the local where you can let your off the lead on a very muddy slope. Bent to stroke another little dog who came over to say hello. H put his paws on my leg, I slipped on the bank, dropped my knees and somehow my right arm was under me with wrist bent. Knew it was broken so rolled to my left and that arm was also under me. That one cracked two ribs.!!! I think fishkeeping is not as dangerous, although with my luck at presnt I would probably fall in the taqnk and drown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 We had an interesting afternoon with a guest speaker from Masterpet giving us a PowerPoint presentation then Mark Paterson talked about collecting stuff for local marine tanks and what he has in plan for us tomorrow. We can only hope the weather improves as it has been cold, windy and wet all day. Good thing we have been inside nice and warm with plenty of lovely food offered throughout the day. There is even some birthday cake left! Now we are all resting, or shopping etc, until the evening meal. :thup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted June 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 We are all heading to Mark's new place tomorrow (he said something about needing to shift an 8ft tank) then wading about in rock pools (depending on weather). Dinner was lovely, as was dessert. Conversations after dinner were also fun, as was the auction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
