CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS LONGRIDGE STYLE

After our December meeting at which President Ted introduced a  (yet to be ratified by National Council) new trophy: the Longridge "keeping meetings short Trophy”, 73 members, ladies, guests and clergy retired to enjoy a superb meal with meaningful readings from Charles Dicken’s          “A Christmas Carol” reminding those present of the real message of Christmas. 



 Many had come attired in suitable Dickensian/Victorian costume but all entered into the spirit of Christmas celebration as the Catenian family.
 The meal was concluded with a reminder from Ted in Charles Dickens words of the continuing of the Christmas theme throughout the year. 


Then followed a boisterous rendition of Christmas Carols and songs accompanied by many percussion instruments and Hannah on flute, Chris on ukulele, Fr Mario leading the singing and our very own “twinkle fingers Ted” on keyboard.




A group of those in Dickensian/Victorian attire which it was suggested may be submitted for the December 2018 issue of Catena!!!!
A super night was had by all.

PRESIDENT TED AND JANIS ALONG WITH ALL AT LONGRIDGE CIRCLE WISH ALL IN PROVINCE 10 A HAPPY AND HOLY CHRISTMAS, A VERY EXCITING NEW YEAR AND LOOK FORWARD TO THE FUTURE OF THIS GREAT ASSOCIATION.
