  View this email in your browser THANK YOU... Arias & Antiques - Tim Wonnacott Thank you to the HUGE TV personality, and friend of Clonter, Tim Wonnacott, who so generously donated his time and energy to coming to give so much JOY to the Clonter audience last Thursday. Thank you also to all the stalwart and life-long friends of Clonter, who so kindly organised this event to contribute to Clonter’s 50th appeal. And to all those that donated local cheese, 'Anne's' homemade chutney, brownies, and the wine (Thank you, Tim), not forgetting 'Ros's' homemade elderflower cordial. It was identified by Clonter’s General Manager, in her introduction to Tim Wonnacott and the event, that included top and tailing by 2 singers and a pianist – more of that later – and the hearty ploughman’s lunch that was to follow, that everything about this event was symbolic – in her view – as to why and how Clonter had managed to survive so long, reaching this amazing milestone.
