Hello hello hello ;)

Dear All,

Hope you are all well.

Apologies I have not been in contact for the last few weeks. As you can imagine, Christmas and New Year have been hectic with frequent family and friend celebrations as well as regular visits to the hospital due to my Grandma's ill health.

I am currently in negotiation with the Library to determine if and when the next season of the reading club shall take place. La Xunta has not been able to confirm that they will be able to fund the reading club.  So, as discussed with you all previously, if you wish, we can continue the reading club on our own terms.

I sincerely hope you have all had a fabulous Christmas and New Year break.

All the best for 2011!!!

I hope to hear from all of you soon,

Best wishes,

Jessica
