Thank you and good by dinner in Stockholm before my move to Luxembourg
I was invited to a very nice farewell party by my Executive Board.

Council meeting in Paris 1990
My last assigned as Executive Treasurer was in Paris. I read all the documents for the Council Meeting on the train from Luxembourg to Paris. The day before the Council meeting we were offered drinks at the Paris Bourse and the dinner we had at Maison Europe.
The day after the Council meeting we went on an excursion to La Défense.
1990 Conference and AGM in Maastricht
The Conference theme: Networking Communication across the border was initiated by Baron Charles van der Straten Waillet. I was honoured to have him at my table.
A very strange thing happened.
After the dinner when we all should take the bus to our hotel my coat was missing.
It was discovered that the Baron, by mistake, had taken my coat and I had to take his. I tried to call him in the middle of the night but didn’t succeed. After this episode he left for South Africa for three weeks. Upon his returning he sent his private chauffeur from Brussels to Luxembourg with a nice bouquet of flowers and we could exchange our coats. Please read the card below.
Talking about Networking Communication across the border. We were in a Dutch castle, at the German Belgian border. I am Swedish but live in Luxembourg.
1991 Conference and AGM in Oslo
The AGM was in Oslo this year, which was very convenient for me as I worked as Ex Secr at Den Norske Bank in Luxembourg and had the opportunity to visit our mother company in Oslo.
The Executive Committee:
Hélene Bafé, Greece
Alessandra Lanza, Italy
Valerie Greet, UK
Eivor Lövgren, Sweden
Tove Jorgensen, Denmark
We also visited Braathens test station and it was very exciting to fly a Boeing 737!,
1992 AGM in Brügge
At the conference dinner I met with Sylvia Dymond and Christine Davis
1994 AGM in London
The day before the AGM we were invited to a Cocktail party at Garrard - the Crown Jewellers, where we got a little nice letherpurse as present which I still use every day.
After the AGM we celebrated the 20th anniversary at Grosvenor house.
A visit to Madame Tussauds where I had the opportunity to meet with the Swedish king.
