This event was attended by 36 people which was a good turnout.
The Chairman, Geoff Thompson, opened the proceedings by welcoming everybody.
He reported that our Secretary Lin had received a good number of replies, but many were unable to attend because of advancing years, or had moved away from the area. Sadly we had been told of a number of deaths since the AGM, including Bill Southwell, Stanley Grieve and Peter Sellers.
He then presented Lin with a plant in a carrier bag and a bottle of something alcoholic. The Hon Treasurer, Nick Pickett, had produced accounts for the previous year, showing that we were still solvent. The Chairman then invited us to proceed to Lunch.
As usual, the food was excellent, and we were unable to do full justice to the spread prepared for us, despite many making at least two visits to the buffet.
