Our FAWCO Representative, Orla, invited AWG members to her home to be de-briefed on the
FAWCO conference and also to stay for lunch, which, in honour of the FAWCO conference having
been held in Mumbai, was an Indian feast.
We sat upstairs for the presentations; after Orla had spoken, we heard from both Maggie and Linda, both of whom had attended the conference in Mumbai. Linda passed around photos of the time that she and Christophe spent in Goa - calm, beautiful cows resting peacefully on the beach with them.
As usual, Orla's hospitality exceeded all expectations, and we were fully informed and well fed by the conclusion of the lunch.
Very many thanks to Orla for inviting us, and for Maggie and Linda's interesting tales.

Linda sent these photos that were taken in Mumbai:

| Opening night in Mumbai - members of FAWCO Region 3. Look closely at Linda's forehead - in India, a vermilion mark in the parting of the hair just above the forehead is worn by married women as a commitment to long-life and well-being of their husbands. Right on, Linda! Love all these saris! |

Shades of the British Raj - Linda's ride in Goa is a Royal Enfield motorbike - a classic!

Cerese sent these photos from the lunch - thank you!
