BISHOP'S WALTHAM, JUNE 2006

Dear Peter (Finn)

I am addressing this short note of thanks to you principally but want to copy it to the others who made the effort to be at The Priory this weekend:

I thought everything went so well, what with the A-1 weather, the singing on Sunday morning (thanks to John Morton) and the steam train journey on Saturday (thanks to Peter Vale-Humphreys) plus the bonus trip to Jane Austen's house.  And what an excellent job John and Margaret (Morton) made of the story of their Holy Land trip at Easter.

Terry Butler phoned Fr Buckley on his sickbed in Ireland and he sent us all his best regards.

Dryburgh Abbey Hotel is fully booked for Hogmanay and has a long waiting list.  What if we tried for 2007?

My deepest thanks to you, John Morton and Margaret, John J. Deeney and Maureen,  Tommy Kelly and Margaret,  Peter Vale-Humphreys and Edith, Mike Byrne and Andrew Cotton (my missing chorister), and Verna Burdett Clark (with son Steve).

Who else?  I'm sorry if I've missed anyone.

Love to Brenda,

Eugene
