Jan-Feb update

Madelines have confirmed that they will open for table service from Jan 14, but not on Mondays until after Labour Day in March. We are currently considering our options for after Jan 18, but will continue as below until then.

Dec-Jan update

For November and December, those who can and want to walk meet at 8:45, giving us time to complete the walk, wait for a coffee, and be back home in time for GoZooMers at 10am.

Nov-Dec update

Madelines have a sign saying that they will not open for indoor seating until January, so coffee still needs to be on Zoom. They are doing take away, but the queue can be long.

With the current rules, it is possible for us to do the Jells Park walk on Monday, in groups of ten or less. No mixing between the groups permitted. We need to wear masks, and keep a record of who was in each group. I suggest a quick phone photo. What is legal may not be advisable, and that is a judgement that we all need to make individually. Absolutely no pressure.

Isolation Links

The links that were here have been migrated to CovidCommunications in order to share with the wider church congregation.

We have also started a GomerFun page. (If that is not an oxymoron?)

Normal Stuff

GOMER (Grumpy Old Men and Early Retirees (voluntary or otherwise)) is a group of men who meet for coffee at Madeline's at 10am on Monday mornings. Some of us meet at 9:10 for a gentle walk around the lake before coffee.

It began when two men became in-voluntary Early Retirees, due to injury, and a couple of Old Men took them out for coffee. It has grown to a regular attendance over 20, our own reserved table, and staff being well trained to look after us.

Contact DavidMorgan for further information, help with transport etc.

We were recently presented with this notice.

Tenth anniversary

8 Jul 2019. Scones this morning were "on the house" provided by Liana and the restaurant in honour of our tenth anniversary.

Below is the photo of the 30 of us singing "happy birthday to us".
