REFLECTION FOR AUG./SEPT.:

CARING AND SHARING

We are all aware of the appalling catastrophic flooding which has devastated the lives of so many in Pakistan. We may have benefitted from the results of climate change in our corner of the world this summer - hopefully you were able to take full advantage of the good weather here - but it is painfully obvious that others who share this planet with us as home have not been so lucky. We have had, and still have , many opportun ities that we care enough to share.

ACTION FOR THE MONTH:

Let us at least resolve to live simply, with respect for our environment, so that others may simply live.

HERITAGE DAY AT LUISNE!

A good time was had by all who attended our Open Day at Luisne as part of National Heritage Week. The afternoon included a tour of the walled garden with Gordon Bradshaw, a history of the 18th Century house with Emer Singleton who very ably presented even more interesting and anecdotal information than last year,great art activities for the children led by Dave Flynn (in a truly wonderful tent - the art area for the day), and a great variety of music to entertain all. The photographs below capture the mood of the day. And how blessed we were with the weather!
