Folk, I've been asked by the Council to give them a Guestimate of how many would attend AFD Glasgow on 28th June ( Remember we don't have a Branch meeting in June)
Note there will be no parade, just a Civic Reception, where ( but don't qoute me) if like recent years there probably won't be any alcohol.
Pleas let me know if you would like to attend.
Thank you to Ellen for your support. Your funding went a long way, the Garden now is even more Beautiful.
John and Micheal came up and lent a hand.

As you know we spoke about the condition of a flower bed in the Vets garden
True to their word the council lads got it sorted this morning.
They are going to help lay the Top Soil, which is now ordered next Wednesday, friends indeed.
Story Members raised nearly £2k for SSAFA in Glasgow Central Station on Friday 26th March.
Well done all

Good Evening Terry
I wanted to take a moment to thank you sincerely for attending Jimmy’s funeral service on Monday and for carrying the Parachute Regimental Standard. Your presence and support during this difficult time meant a great deal to us and was a fitting tribute to his memory.
We are deeply grateful for your respect and service.
Warm regards,
Colin
Great time had by all having been surprisingly invited by this charity which none of us were aware of, all free of charge.
