Modesty prevents me from making comment after reading Nic’s account on our website!All I will say is that everyone involved in this remarkable evening has made an old man very happy. It was for one night only and my retirement at the pinnacle of my musical career is a sensible move as one can only take so much stardom.
It was a really great night and I have written thank yous to a whole host of people who made it all possible so I won’t repeat names here- you all know who you are, thank you all so much. No president could ask for a better send off than the one I was privileged to receive last night, we have a fantastic club and the future is looking really bright.
100 club draw took place during the evening and was presented by our new club Grandad.
It was a pity, but most understandable, that some members and guests couldn’t join us for the evening due to the recent bereavements associated with our club this past couple of weeks. Many of us attended Margaret’s funeral earlier in the day and the large numbers attending spoke volumes for her popularity.
What a week of mixed emotions.
