LADIES NIGHT

Guildford Golf Club, by now becoming the Guildford Catenian's ancestral home, hosted the 'Spring'  Ladies Night on Wednesday March 2nd 2016. Spring may have been in the step of many brothers and ladies but it certainly wasn't in the outside weather conditions which were more akin to Arctic! Whatever, the Guildford Cats are a hardy bunch and the evening was entered into with the usual air of bonhomie. It was a full house and the dining room was bursting at the seams with revellers!

Sharing the evening with us was Fr Dunstan Keauffling from St Augustine's Abbey in Chilworth, the home of a Community of Benedictine Monks of the Subiaco Cassinese Congregation. The brothers and ladies were appreciative of his sung Grace both before and after the meal. Bro. William D'Souza, VP elect, formally welcomed the Ladies and Maureen Bielac responded on their behalf.  

Bro. President Greg Melly announced that the evening was his last official function as Guildford President and he asked all present to remember Bro. Barry Dale in their prayers. As we all know, Bro. Barry has been seriously ill. However, the most recent reports circulated via Bro. Secretary Steve Rowden, informed us that Bro Barry came off the ventilator on Friday the 4th March and continues to recover from the sedation effects. It will be some time before he moves to St George's Hospital but this is encouraging news.

Absent Brothers?

Drinking coffee after dinner can be habit forming

Here's to the Ladies!

Of course you're wonderful, would we lie?

Someone's slipped a Mickey Finn into my tea!

That's my girl!

Oh no! this one's my shopping list!

Phew!

All that stress and hassle for a bunch of flowers from Sainsbury's

These special glasses magnify everything to twice its normal size!

A Penny for your thoughts!

Well done Eileen, it's the end of the evening and we're still standing!
