Dear Readers
I wish to thank all those who have sent cards, letters, text and facebook messages following my award of the M.B.E. It has been a humbling experience and I am extremely grateful for the honour my family, friends and the townspeople have bestowed.
The latest was being called to take photos of the MAD Choir Charity Concert at the Phoenix Club last Friday night, only to be singled out to receive a collage of congratulatory notes specially framed and presented by Sonia Scott the choir’s founder.
I truly didn’t expect so much fuss and I am deeply grateful for all the good wishes received. The award was for work in the community which I will continue to do as long as I am able, encouraged by this wonderful gesture.
Your Editor and friend
Syd
