SUMMARY:CSF NEWSLETTER: FEBRUARY 2019
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nHello EveryoneYou know\, in the grand scheme of things seasonal\, this period which dilly-dallies between January and the beginning of March should be a time for quiet contemplation.   Snow can be inconvenient\, freezing temperatures keep us indoors\, icy blasts chap our lips and the wind sends our shopping trolleys careering around the supermarket carpark.  Who can blame those who leap off to find warmer weather.  But I love our winter landscape – Canigou wearing her early morning blue and white face\, the statuesque plane trees with their bare branches\, that dusting of snow on top of the Albères and the sky in the evening\, slate grey and streaked with red and gold. </p class=”western”> \nFEBRUARY SALES!\nSomeone has very kindly donated a couple of items which we would like to offer for sale.\n– AMamas & Papas\, sturdy Travel Cot– in good condition \n– A Child Carrier Framed Backpack – suitable for child of around 6 months – 3/4 yrs.  \nWe would like to offer each of these (or both) to the highest bidder.  \n\nClosing date probably 31st March.   Email me your offers please. \n\n\n\nThe AGM & the 10th Anniversary of CSF Sud\nLast Wednesday we held our 10th AGM at the L’Oliveraie in Carcassonne.  It was a joyous occasion with just a touch of nostalgia and a little sadness too.  Once the usual business was over\, Penny Parkinson and Hazel Turner told the story of CSF Sud from 2009 – 2019.  It was a fascinating journey with lots of photographs and anecdotes along the way.  Penny then officially handed over her presidential reins to Phil Mercer.  Phil and his wife Pam are our Representatives in the Aude.  Phil will be taking over as Sud President for an interim period of 6 months.\n\nThere’s a lot more to be said about this historic occasion and you will shortly be able to find the unexpurgated version on our CSF website https://cancersupportfrance.org \n\n\nPlease make a note of these email addresses:\nPenny Parkinson sud-penny@cancersupportfrance.org\n\nPhil Mercer sud-president@cancersupportfrance.org \n\n\nWednesday 6 February  –    Céret    –    10.30-12   \nPablo’s Bar in the Place Pablo Picasso.   Come and join us for coffee and conversation.\n\nMonday 18 February  –    Laroque    –    10.30-12 \nAt the Café des Artistes there’s paperbacks\, English and French.  People have been very generous lately and we have a lot of « new » books so do come along and have a browse.
