Those from Blackstock who attend- ed were Mr. and Mrs. Bill Ferguson, Mrs. Lloyd Wright, Mr. and Mrs. Harry McLaughlin and Mrs. K. Samells. On Sunday Lawrence and Linda McLaughlin, Lynn and Brent held a family dinner in honour of Harry McLaughlin's 80th birthday. Attending were Mr. and Mrs. Harry McLaughlin and Mr. and Mrs. Glover Ross of Tavistock. In the evening they came to visit Harry's sister Mrs. Alma Taylor who had been unable to attend the dinner due to the blizzard. Many happy returns, Harry. The blizzard on Sun- day certainly changed a great number of plans for many families. It was the type of day that was much better spent inside looking out at the storm than being out on roads, possibly involved in some of the many serious traffic accidents.
