The first one took place on Monday 13th September at the Swanholme, with numbers into double figures, including, and thank you very much, both City and County Councillors. We will move these monthly events round the Wards and thus hope Ward representatives will attend, or to at least send a friend or two, (we know you have them!). These are not fund raising events, just a relaxed evening out, enabling people to meet each other in pleasant surroundings with the opportunity of eating as well. Ideas of how we can do more, particularly helping each other and others, “Social Action”, is something we would like to work towards, and these events can be the catalyst for such. Giving those without transport lifts to meetings was one such idea raised.
The next Monday Meet will be in Glebe Ward, at the Lincolnshire Poacher, Wragby Road, on Monday 11th October from 7.30 pm, with a light hearted quiz with prizes promised. It will also be an opportunity to discuss what happened at the Party Conference that took place the previous week. Make a note of the date, and make an effort to be there.
If you need a lift get in touch with Andrew on 07765 966345 or Peter on 07749 927936
A warm invitation is extended to all Association members, supporters, friends, and their partners to join us at the first of our new Monday social meetings to be held on Monday 13th September at The Swan Holme on Doddington Road from 7.30pm onwards.
Why not come along for an evening of hopefully good conversation and exchange of views on all national and local political issues or just for a social chat. Take the opportunity to cross examine the Association Chairman and other officers on Association policies and views. Let us know what social events you would like or if you have any other ideas. It is also hoped a City Councillor will be present to update us on Council matters. Just pop along at any time during the evening for simply a drink or perhaps a meal as well – it will be very informal. New and recent members are particularly welcome – possibly a first opportunity to meet fellow supporters of the local Conservative Party.
It would also be useful if you could let us know whether you hope to attend so that we can bag a suitable size area in the pub for the gathering. Peter Sunderland, Chairman, and Andrew Bradley, one of your Deputy Chairmen
