Re: Dick Straub has passed away

Sorry to read this. Dick was one of the first members of the Leonard Cohen community that I met, at the event in New York in 2004. Such a lovely man.
My sincere condolences to Linda and all his family and friends.

Re: The Future of our Hydra Meet-Ups

Thank you so much to Jarkko and Eija for all your dedication over the years in organising these events. I have very happy memories of the 3 Hydra gatherings John and I attended and the friends we met. Family circumstances have limited our attendance in more recent years. I am so pleased to see Caren...

Re: Buxton, England 1st Sept.

At present the plan for Friday is to meet outside our lodgings' (most of us are in neighbouring hotels) for the short walk uphill to Solomons temple. 12.00 meet, then we can make a group decision afterwards for other activities.

That's fine if Sue comes. My John can't walk either and there may be a few others just hanging around!

Re: Buxton, England 1st Sept.

We'd love to see you Wendy and Tony. Some of us are arriving Thursday so we can sort out a place to meet up in the afternoon or early evening of Thursday and take it from there.

Re: Buxton, England 1st Sept.

Thanks Ken for all that. Did you have a day out in Buxton?

I re-did a local walk yesterday to lead a group of 12 -15 today,
and got so lost that for a time I panicked about finding my way back to where I left my car!
See you soon.

Thanks Ken.
A few of us have booked the Roseleigh guesthouse for 3 nights, arriving Thursday afternoon. It's a door or 2 along from the Westminter :D
