nk you goes out to Julia Timmins and her family for her most generous hospitality at The Folley; to Annette Hughes and her family for administrating the day perfectly and providing the delicious cakes along with Anne Hastings whose cakes were works of art in themselves; to Chris Manley for taking the photographs and creating a video of the event which will be shown at our Centenary Exhibition later in the year; and of course, thank you to our President Keith Oram for his enthusiasm in generating such an original idea with which to illustrate and record the work of the society. Thank you also to those who provided the Raffle prizes.
Such rewarding experiences hold our society together in the most creative way as do our dedicated and supportive committee members who work so hard on our behalf. Thank you all again for a wonderful day.
