Foundation
Dinner
What a splendid evening. A sumptuous meal in an
historic setting, in the company of your friends, and with 3 excellent
after dinner speakers – and all for just £18.00. (Compare and
contrast this with other venues you frequent).
As always, the ladies, ably assisted by Joel, did us proud and
produced a superb 4-course meal. This takes a lot of work and effort,
especially in the preparation, and they attacked the vegetables with a
will, and having sorted out Dave, Ralph, Derek, Bob, Trevor and yours
truly, they peeled and washed the carrots and leeks. (Come on, you knew
that was coming!). On behalf of the Club, my thanks to
Jan, Jenny, the 2 Maureen’s, Sue and Susan.
My thanks also to Lord and Lady Montagu for
their generosity and support in allowing us to use The Domus
without charge. It is a truly unique venue and we are extremely lucky to be
able to hold our annual dinner in such a glorious building.
Lee Fryett and Kathy Nicholson Banks
were very good ambassadors for the Group Study Exchange scheme and
demonstrated that it can be a memorable and productive project in which to
participate. There was no doubting that both of them gained from their
experiences across the pond and I’m sure that our colonial cousins
also gained from meeting them. It is also very possible that Rotary will
gain a couple of enthusiastic new members in a few years time.
