“Biting wit, needle sharp comment, deep insight into current affairs. Sadly, all missing from my first (and, you may well soon wish, last) post on the web. Instead, a look back on the last month’s events.
AGM, traditionally a popular meeting, attracted a good turnout of members (Actually, that brings up an image best forgotten).
Principally of course, attendance is driven both by the prospect of wine on the table, and the desire not to be voted into a role in one’s absence. Happily, volunteers for every official position were abundant – some so popular that twins have been elected to both Meetings and Fellowship, and Sports and Entertainment. I’m particularly delighted that for the first time in 2 years, we have a Vice Chairman! My thanks indeed to all who have agreed to help keep the show on the road for this year – and of course, to everyone who put so much effort in to make such a success of last year under the leadership of John Ward.
Mike Andrew Memorial Walking Weekend 11th – 13th October 2019. There are spaces on this fantastic weekend for members, held at The George Inn, Hubberholme, Yorkshire (Great food, fellowship, and fun compulsory, walking optional). Please contact Pete Chapman for more details.
In addition to an excellent speaker at our meeting last night (who gave a talk entitled “One man and his coracle”), our esteemed Chairman presented Vice-Chairman David Dimeloe with his chain of office. Minutes from the meeting have been distributed at the speed of light to members who have subscribed to receive “Member emails”.

On Tuesday 23rd and Wednesday 24th April the 11th Annual Lichfield 41 Club Spring Golf Trophy was contested at The Marriott Forest of Arden Course at Meriden. A great time was had by the 13 members and two guests who all enjoyed great friendship and for some, good golf. The two courses were very different, photos can be seen at this link and results on this page
