I used to get to the meeting as it started and dash out immediately it ended.
My first sponsor decided it would be good for me to do the washing up!
Nowadays I always arrive early and stay talking afterwards,I always give my phone number to the new ladies,we all do in our meetings,the newcomer is always warmly welcomed.
Also love the car journeys to and from meetings with other AAer’s,great for discussing the Programme.
I love the fellowship.
