Handwritten letter from Brenda Birch, SOUTHWOLD, Suffolk. 20 March 2007

Dear David and Julie,

My nephew saw your article in the paper and sent it to me. He remembered
a good few happy holidays in Aviemore.

My husband Brian was manager of the Post House Hotel from 1972-1979,
the good old days when the centre boomed, there was snow on the
Cairngorms and Cairdsport Ski School, based at the hotel, thrived!

I’ve looked at the photo album, but, typical of a doting young mother,
the photos are all of my children, now 31 and 33 years old.
We’ve found some old films in the loft, but no projector.
Any luck and I’ll be in touch again.
I did though, find this little ad in my writing case (why was it kept??????),
which I’ve photocopied.



I was secretary of the Osprey Curling Club,
a mad group of hotel and centre staff, who met one evening a week in
the winter for a great laugh and a good bit of curling.
David Dick was our President/boss.

That’s it.

Kind regards,

Brenda Birch
