Hi Marija. I have checked the notes and I think you were reading the ones from the month before. The ones from last month are correct. See you next month.

Sorry, I think I have just mistyped the name. You are right, you were there and Karla was not. I will re read the notes and alter them. Once again, my apologies. I have been doing so many minutes with WRD coming up, I guess my brain is a bit scrambl…

Chris Duffin
I wish to volunteer to help with the shelters in the Costa Blanca. I was a prison Governor for 20 years and have worked with both the victims and perpertrators of domestic violence as well as being a victim myself. I was trained in counselling for violent offenders and sex offenders and feel I can be of some use to those who need it now.
About You / Married or Single? How long living in Spain? Kids? Pets? Favourite Hobbies?
I am married and have lived in Spain for the past 9 years. My family are spread over the globe with one of my sons in Canada and one of my husbands daughters in Sydney. My two other children and my four grandchildren live in the Manchester area and Harry's other daughter lives in London.
Both myself and my husband spend a great deal of time playing tennis and travelling. We have recently come back from our second trip around the world. We have to keep going to Australia or we wouldn't see our grandchildren there.
I have spent many years raising money for numerous charities but mainly for Dreamflight and Children in Need. At least my Prison Service experience taught me organisational skills.
Sadly we have no pets since our old cat of 17 years dies last year. We will have two German Shephers dogs when we stop the travelling.
Unique Skills & Talents? Are you a people person? Can you sing, write, desk top publish? Please Let Us Know!
I am a trained counsellor. A touch typist but have no artistic talents whatsoever. A good public speaker and reasonably computer literate.
My husband is a writer for TV and screen and recently completed a novel so although I am not the writer, I can write articles and papers.
Sadly, my Spanish is not up to much but my English is extremely good.
What do you want to get out of this club? Business contacts? New friends? Help a social cause? Please Explain!
My aim is purely to offer assistance to your fundraising to help women who are the victims of domestic violence.

TV Series

Hi Gals,
If you know any teenagers who like good drama, my husband's TV series, devised for young people, is being repeated on Channel 5 starting this Sunday at 12.30pm our time. It is a drama series where all the adults in the world have wiped themselves out with an anti-ageing virus and the children who are left, are trying to develop a society. It was highly successful the first time it was shown and lasted for almost 5 years so some of you may have seen it before. The programme is called The… Continue
