In view of the latest information about the Covid-19 virus the meeting on Thursday 19th March 2020 is cancelled and those for the foreseeable future.
Here is a link to the British Heart Foundation website that may be of interest -

I have heard that some people are attempting to scam using coronavirus as an excuse and sending bogus emails out. How despicable can some people get? So please take care of yourselves regarding the virus but also please be aware of electronic viruses from truly nasty individuals.
When we all feel it will be sensible to meet again, I am sure that we will all have plenty to say and it will be a great get together.

A new room
We met today in a much larger room than usual but hopefully we still had a cosy meeting, with a new person joining our group.
There was a wide ranging discussion including events in the current news, our medications and even the precise location of a shop in Portishead!
No cake this week but will there be a gluten and dairy free cake next time that is also suitable for diabetics? A real challenge but I think it is very likely.
It was also suggested that we could bring along some books to swap next time.

It was great to see everyone today.
A fantastic cider fruit cake was brought along to share, thank you.
There were many interesting topics discussed and nice to catch up again.

A cold day but a warm meeting
A beautful sunny day with a crisp cold snap to it.
Just a few of us today, we hope that those who didn't come along today were enjoying some winter sunshine.
Christmas already seems a long time ago and we will have had Valentine's day before the next meeting and then Shrove Tuesday after.
What a busy month, a good job it has an extra day this year.
See you all in a fortnight.

Don't mention ......!
Damp and gloomy, but enough about me.
Despite being a cool overcast January day there was plenty of light and cheery banter at todays meeting.
It was great to have a new person attending today and we hope that he felt very welcome and enjoyed coming along.
There was some excellent cider and apple fruit cake which was thoroughly enjoyed.
It was agreed that we try and invite some guest speakers to come along.
Any suggestions or contacts are most welcome.
I hope that those that didn't get to the meeting today are well and had other things to do.
See you all in two weeks.

First meeting of 2020
Our first meeting of the new year and everyone seemed to have had a good holiday and not over eaten.
There seemed to be plenty to say on the current issues in the news as well as personal tales.
There was some talk about what direction the group should take.

Last meeting of 2019
Three of the group were not able to come this time but those who came along had a good chat about a wide variety of subjects and managed to only briefly mention the recent voting results...
...Of Strictly Come Dancing!
A lot of the discussion was about old Bristol and some of the landmarks there. Who remembers the Blue Star garage as a signpost?
Another chat was about buying old and second hand books and that the internet has made these more available. Also the local libraries are linked together and it is easy to order a book from the large number of books they now collectively have.
We hope that you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy and importantly, a Very Healthy New Year.
We look forward to meeting up again on 9th January 2020.
