When we moved to Longford it was always our plan that we would look for ways to involve ourselves in local activities. It's taken a while but, eventually, I joined the local men's Probus Club and I've been a pretty regular attender. Marilyn has been a little more reluctant but yesterday she went to her first meeting with the Ladies' Probus. Not the 'Women's' Probus , you understand, but the 'Ladies'.
It turns out that the Men's Club have about 23 members but the Ladies have over 50! Marilyn was very impressed and has vowed to go again. Their next meeting is to be a luncheon where all the 'ladies' will wear the club colours: blue and yellow. Marilyn never wears yellow so we had to make a trip today to the local fashion shop to see what she could find.
She has ended up with a top in a chartreuse colour. I can't tell the difference between chartreuse and yellow so I think she'll get away with it.
Madeleine and the three kids arrive tomorrow so excitement is starting to mount.
