AGM, traditionally a popular meeting, attracted a good turnout of members (Actually, that brings up an image best forgotten).

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.
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”.
