Best wishes for the New Year and welcome to our 'new' Land Rover! J214
XFS has been retired after 238,000 miles and we did all bar 42,000! It has
been replaced by a similar but newer vehicle. Thanks to Lakeland Land
Rover for accommodating our quirky conversion!
If you are able to come along on any workday, please ring
Liz and David. The pick-ups will be at the Shrimp roundabout, Morecambe at
9.15am and Royal Lancaster Infirmary bus stop at 9.30am, by
telephone bookings only. It helps us to make arrangements if we
know how many people to expect. A reminder that subscriptions are due from
January 1 - £8 (£4 unwaged).
