SIR - We were sorry to hear the news about the change of use for The Old Ship (last week’s Herald)

For many years, The Ship has been home to the ‘Upper Room’ book group who have met there monthly. Over the years, it has been a cosy and atmospheric meeting place for our many discussions, laughter and tears. We have always been warmly welcomed and well served by all managers and staff, but would particularly like to thank Shane and the current staff for being so kind to us and we wish them Good Luck for their future.

We will miss our gatherings in the ‘Upper Room’ and now begin our search for a new home.

Best wishes and thank you to The Old Ship
