President's Letter 31 Electricity Tips

Our sympathy and condolences go to the family and friends of Keith Jones, one of our former members, who sadly passed away last month. Keith was a bridge player. The attendances at the club on Thursdays are certainly picking up. This week there was hardly a spare table to be had, despite all the restrictions having been removed and the seating now returned to full capacity. We have returned to serving the lunches buffet-style, but we are calling you by table number to collect your lunch, in order to avoid queues. Most of the club activities are running now, including Bridge on a Thursday evening and Canasta on Tuesday afternoons (except when there is a committee meeting when it is played on Monday afternoons). However, Bums and Tums exercise class will not be running until January. A new event -a Table Top Sale-will be held on Saturday 8th January. You can rent a table for 5€ (or a larger one for 8€) to sell your "stuff" -no rubbish please! Richard Woods had the idea and he will be organising it, and already we have a number of tables booked. The bar will be open and you can pop in for a drink and chat. I hope you will support it and we can run it regularly. The magazine is being produced on a bi-monthly basis for the next few months until the AGM on 10th March when a decision will be made about future editions. There is a suggestion box in the clubhouse. Please use it to tell us what you would like to see at the club. One of the regular suggestions -a trip to Granada has now been booked for 14th to 18th March 2022. Please continue to watch the notice boards, our website -theicelub.es and our Facebook page, for the most up to date information about what is going on. Whatever you are doing and wherever you may be spending Christmas this year, I wish you a happy and safe festive season and a happy and healthy New Year.

Sheila Fox, President
