O’Pip & Florence Nightingale (I do believe the last all Moth Ladies Shellhole) amalgamated last year (2015) as both were suffering with low membership. O’Pip was Mainline District that met in Seaview & Florence Nightingale was in Durban District that met in the Claude Page Hall of Bartle Road MOTH Cottages. So now amalgamated, O’Pip & Florence Nightingale meet at the Claude Page Hall ( D & D) and they are Mainline District Shellhole !
Well besides that they are pretty jacked, they have produced a year planner of social functions for the year ! An e-mail was sent through both Districts Old Bills informing all Shellhole that O’Pip & Florence Nightingale was going to host a MOTH social darts at Claude Page Hall on Sat 18th June commencing at 14,00 hours & it would be a bring and braai after. Sadly only there were only 9 dart players of which there were only two MOTH ! But in True Comradeship everyone that was there along with about 5 visitors had a most fantastic time and not only playing darts. I mean look at Rose Koster with a dart in her toe ! All the monies raised at R5,00 per player went to the O’Pip & Florence Nightingale account and that the Winner of the darts had the choice of Red or white wine and the looser got the other bottle of wine. The hosts (Joan Hayfield) laid on some very tasty snacks. Unfortunately Old Bill Howard Prothero was laid up in hospital – Get better soon Howard. It was a pleasure to have been able to assist in running the darts for O’Pip and really was a great day for me as well – The War Correspondent
