Twenty Club Members and partners will be attending the Contact Club Meeting in Lyon from 7-10 December so there will be much reduced numbers here on Thursday 7 December. Club Council has therefore concluded we should cancel the regular lunch and speaker that day. However, Hon Sec Glenda and JVP Gordon will be in The Scotsman Grand Cafe that lunchtime and will be pleased to meet any members wishing to come to the Scotsman that day. Lunch or refreshments can be ordered and paid for individually. It would be helpful to have some indication of numbers so if you plan to come to the Grand Cafe that day, please contact Hon Sec Glenda.
For the less mobile, there is an entry door to the Scotsman Hotel on Market Street, opposite the Waverley Station Entrance. Entry is by intercom with a lift to Level 4 where the Grand Cafe is located.
