The Members Night that was and wasn't?
A Report on the
Members’ Night of Resolfen History Society held on Monday 13th
December in the Church Hall
When the history of the pandemic is written, the changing of
a geographical location to describe a mutated virus for a Greek letter will
certainly feature highly in the geopolitics of the situation. It will come as
no surprise to anyone, that the meeting had to be postponed at the last minute
owing to unwelcome appearance of the omicron
variant which along with television appearances by both the Prime and First
Ministers, put paid to any chance of getting a crowd. Nevertheless the
Committee miraculously had its first full attendance in a very long time, and
it was decided that our Christmas meeting would be transmogrified into a St
David’s Night in March, when the content programmed for the Christmas event
would be used. This did not stop the Committee members having a prolonged
meeting, in which festive food and mulled wine was consumed, though this must
be stressed was an extension of their normal duties not a party, as you will of
course concur.
The Society will now take a short break until March ,when
everyone in Resolfen and beyond is invited to attend the revamped Members’
evening, though tea and Welsh-cakes will be on offer, not the mulled wine which would probably have gone cold in its
vacuum flask. There will then be two other meetings to finish this rather strange
year, and normal service will be resumed in September when the Society will
begin its 40th Anniversary year.
Nadolig Llawen a Blwyddyn Newydd Dda.
