Unable to Attend Tea Date Tonight



Hello Mape, Regina, Marisol and Sonya and those of you who arranged to meet for tea in Santa Brigida this evening. Unfortunately, I am unable to go as have a tummy bug (virus). I am putting the message here as I do not have any of your telephone numbers. I am sorry to be missing the meeting. Have a nice time and hope we can do it again some other time.

Wishing you all a Happy New Year.

best wishes,
