Thanks to everyone that came along for Christmas drinks at the Cricketers last Thursday. Good turnout - about 50 or so - but we still didn't manage to drink £250 worth of booze! Call yourself journalists? Shame on you!
We're aiming for the next meeting in January to coincide with a pub quiz, possibly at the Nelson in Trafalgar Street. Unless anyone has any other ideas?
Meeting at a pub might sound a bit odd, and rather more of an informal social occasion than a 'proper' union affair. But I think that to be really supportive to members, the branch does need to be a strong social network before anything else. Then if members do need assistance, everyone should know each other.
In the meantime, I hope everyone has a relaxing Christmas and an enjoyable break...
