Hi Folks,
I hope you all had a really good Christmas and since I'm sending this on Hogmanay, I wish you all a happy and peaceful 2010.
As we previously said on our calendar, our first Tuesday in 2010 (5th Jan), is our outing to McDonalds, Palace Grounds, for Tea.
The Boys should meet us inside McDonalds between 5.45 and 6pm. They should wear their Anchor Polo shirt and Sweat shirt, but can wear their jeans on the bottom half, as usual.
When they arrive I will take their order – NO money required, as this is their Christmas/ New Year treat.
You should plan to pick your Son up again from McDonalds at 7.15pm, as normal.
It would be helpful if you could let me know by e-mail or text, whether or not your son will be going.
Hope to see you all there.
Linda.
PS. Anchor Section resumes, normal time and place on Tuesday 12th.

Junior & Company Section 10-pin Bowling
I hope that you have all had a good Christmas & Santa brought you everything that you asked for .
As usual we are going 10-pin bowling. I have booked Cosmic Bowling at M&D's in Strathclyde Park for 2 pm on Wednesday 30th December.
We are booked to play 2 games of bowling, so that should take approx. 2 hours.
So as we can start at 2 pm, we would like the Boys down for 1.45, so as I can split them up into age groups teams for their lanes.
Also it would help us greatly if we knew who is or is not coming.
So I would ask that you email me back to let me know one way or the other.
Obviously no uniform for this outing, and they can bring some spending money for food etc.
Thanks
Mark

Smarties
I have given each Boy a full tube of Smarties tonight; this is to help with the fund raising. Our usual simple rules apply, eat the Smarties keep the tube and full it with 20 pence pieces.
When it is full bring it back on a Friday night, sometime after Christmas, probably during February.
This all helps towards the company funds and some of the money is also used as “profit share” towards the cost of the Annual trips.
The Anchor Section will get their Smarties on Tuesday 24th November

Junior & Company Sections – Friday 27th November 2009
As you know next Saturday is the Cadzow Parish Christmas Fayre, so we have given up our use of the halls on Friday night in order to let the halls be set up for the Christmas Fayre.
We are still on; we have been invited to a “St Andrew’s” themed night at the 1st Bothwell Company.
The Junior Section are asked to be across at the Bothwell Parish Church Halls at the slightly later time of 6.40 pm, this is in order to allow their Anchor Section to finish and be clear of the car park. The Boys can be picked up at 8 pm.
The Company Section should be across for the normal time of 7.45 pm and be picked up at 10 pm.
Uniform to be worn as usual. The Boys should bring their normal collection and tuck shop money.
