Summer Trip
A meesage from Mike Carruthers summertrip@carlislelondonbranch.org.
" Some people have voiced their concern over the shortlist of venues for next years summer trip. Originally my idea was to avoid a lengthy list of destinations and I came up with the shortlist having discussed it at the branch meeting and taking informal soundings from a number of members which included asking them to nominate a destination.
If anybody feels that we should revisit the destination list please email me and feel free to add any suggestions. If the general feeling is that we should reconsider I will raise this for discussion at the branch meeting on 21st October. "
