Hosting our Buxéens friends (residents of Boissy) at the end of May was another very successful visit. Two new members Tom & Kath
met Nadine & Pascal for the first time and enjoyed the weekend immensely. 100 guests enjoyed the Soirée evening and 40 managed to
gather early on Sunday morning to go to London on the coach and be tourists for the day! All too soon Monday morning arrived and after lots of
hugs, kisses & promises to meet in Boissy next year the coach took our friends back to France. It was agreed that everyone is looking
forward to next year's visit which will be on the 30th Anniversary of the Twinning Association.
