It was another busy weekend at the
Brussels Legion Branch.
Thursday night mixed blind darts
has had, good groups coming out to
play.
The Friday night supper of roast
pork was delicious but the weather
made for a small crowd. Next week
is Dauphin Stew.
Sanu'clay, there were 10 tables of
euchre in play. Lucky winners were
Well, we're finished with all the
hoopla, with the celebrated rodents,
so on w; th winter. Now for the rest of
the year we can just mutter at the lit-
tle brown dears on the roads and in
the fields.
Like all things in life, there is a
good side and bad side to everything..
The mounds of ice and snow that
we've accumulated this year are no
exception. The bad news is the havoc
it has played on area roofs causing
structural damage as well as the irri-
tation of drips and drops in our
homes. The good news is that the
birders of our village have been
making- contact with lots of petties
including a hungry hawk by the ball
park that now sees Brussels bird
feeders as hunting grounds.
Spring must be around the corner —
a kid on a bicycle was doing all right
the other evening getting places.
Lloyd and Lillian Appleby, John and
Iola Subject and Delores Howatt and
Hazel Reid. Lucky ladies' lone hand
winner was Irlma Edgar and men's
was Arthur Hinz.
The new bartender Linda Hislop
started her first day. She is here
Saturday and Wednesday nights.
Sunday was Darts Ontario upstairs
and later the Singles Dance crowd
enjoyed the music of the Blue
Diamond Trio.
Mind you I didn't see him try to stop.
Valentine's Day is the busiest
flower day of the year and you don't
want your sweetie to be disappointed
now do you?
Sheila Richards has returned from
a frosty visit to Montreal just in time
to celebrate the 2001 line-up of plays
at Blyth theatre. Looks like another
good year. Way to go Keith. A new
Roulston play to look forward to.
Thanks.
Don't let the winter blahs get you
down. Get out for a ride or walk,
phone a friend, visit the nursing
home or go out for supper. It works
even better if a friend calls on the
night you didn't want to cook any-
way. Lucky me!
Enjoy February.
Bye now. Betty G. W.
Men's euchre is on Wednesday
evening, starting sharp at 8:30 p.m.
Comrade Bill McWhirter is still in
Wingham hospital and Comrade
Gerald Rutledge is recovering from
his broken ankle. Comrade Cathy
Snyder is still under the weather and
we wish her a speedy recovery.
Look for a newsletter to all Branch
members in the near future and catch
