Christmas Party |
A short business meeting followed by an absolute hoot
of a variety show when we saw the other side of some of our most 'respected'
members. The Group Co-ordinator's observations on the subject of 'loos'
was most enlightening and the Chairman as a turkey was something else!
A most enjoyable morning. |

Ken James |
My Life as a Lincolnshire Echo Photographer.
Unfortunately, due to illness, Ken could not do his talk and at very
short notice (like 24 hours) Peter Overton stepped in and talked about
his conservation work in the more remote parts of Namibia. A very
enjoyable talk and some wonderful wild life photographs. |
