Hi Every One
Well what a year, We started with a fantastic day out at Quasar a meal followed by our presentation
only to have a couple of unsavory characters try to ruin the day.
I am glade to say they didn't and in the words of our solicitor in response to the letter we received,
" Are these the ramblings of mad men "
I was so glade and honored to receive all of your, your parents and the local community's support.
We received a complete retraction of the letter and against our solicitors advice I decided to draw
a line under it and move on.
All I will say is that, I am a great believer in karma and their dishonorable and disgraceful behavior
will come back on them Three Fold!
Anyway moving on we have had a very successful year with numbers growing making us
stronger and stronger.
We now have our weapons training underway and are about to start first KYU/ Dan Grade
Training. This is for all the Dan grades to work together and help each other through to their
next Dan.
We will be having Dan grades from other Clubs attending which should make it great fun.
We will be having a different hall for the Dan Grade Training to keep it private!!!!.
I have no plans for any more clubs or sessions, Just to concentrate on what we have.
Thanks for a great 2007 and here's to a Happy Health New Year.
Steve
