Summer Lunch, June 2nd
For the summer lunch 2009, we returned again to the Rivierenhof Castle in
Deurne which makes the perfect summer venue.
After a fairly miserable beginning to the summer, the Belgian weather came up trumps, offering us
perfect blue skies and sunshine.
The lunch started with the usual aperitifs and "hapjes".
And that gave plenty of time for talking .

and listening
After purchasing our raffle tickets, we then moved outside onto the terrace,
enjoying apéritifs and canapés and basking
in the glorious warmth.
A good opportunity for people watching.
We then moved
inside for lunch. As usual, the group of
ladies sat at two long tables in a dining
room overlooking the leafy park.
During the main course, the raffle was drawn. The money collected went
to the children's home, "De Kleine Vos", in
Borgerhout where Sister
Isabella works.
Some people were luckier than others.
Right: Sadly it was time
to say farewell to two of our members and in particular to one of our
co-chairs, Janet, who had
done so much for ABIW. We presented her with a thank-you present from
the club.
