congratulations Mamachina!

[Marions]

what do I mean? Well I mean congratulations to mamachina on becoming the new Chairperson of the British Residents Association. None other than the lovely Ann Challis, former Secretary to BRS. I had a good laugh over her forum name because when I first saw it I thought it was ;'ma machina' which in Italian means 'my car' and it was not until i asked her that she told me it was actually 'mama china' which is where she lived and worked for a while.
So congratulations, mamachina. Hope you will be very happy and do us proud as you steer the BRS ship through the waters of the next year.
