THIS is a thank you to all those who attend the Age Concern New Era Social on Friday mornings. Numbers have risen from a humble beginning of 10 to 25 plus.

What a difference it makes when everyone mixes around the room, sharing each others' experiences both happy and sad.

Many friendships are made by playing pool or dominoes, reading the daily papers and even line dancing with our teacher Elaine.

Many can't wait for Friday mornings so they can meet everyone once again. So come on folks, look what you are missing.

ROSEMARY SPEDDING (Mrs), Oswald Street, Accrington.
