Well, here we all are, now in September. Don't mean to be stating the obvious... just thinking how really quickly the year is passing by. Good news though at the Centre because the work on the upper level has been progressing well. I was upstairs today helping to move a few things about and I must say they have done a very good job. I am sure Nicki will like her new office once it's all finally carpeted and set up for her, and the new storage room up there is great. Nicki has been away all this week, but will return next week.
This was my last Friday at the Centre, possibly for some time, as Mike finally returns next week to take back his Friday dives from me. He has been away a long time off in a tropical paradise!! Hawaii for 4 months, no less... So unless I cover sessions, I won't be doing Fridays any more. I first took over Fridays from Eric, who had been at the centre for many years before I arrived there. Then after a while I handed the Friday over to Robert, but he only stayed around 10 months or so, so I ended up taking them back again. Then Mike took over for a few months before his extended break...
Well any way, the sessions today went well. I was with a relatively new no. 2 who had trained up over the past 4 or 5 weeks. The last day for many children of their Summer holidays today, there were 2 or 3 of them at the Centre who'd accompanied parents in and who seemed decidedly downbeat about the prospect of returning to school after I asked them. I know, I know... I shouldn't have even mentioned the dreaded 'S' word, the poor little ones... :)) (ha ha!)
Well, that's it for this installment. I am hoping to find out soon about taking over updating the website. I have some ideas I need to discuss with Charlene about it, so watch this space.
Take care all, my best wishes -
Rod
