Wednesday 3rd December: A good turnout of 27 members and one guest for the feedback from the recent questionnaire. It is presented by Michael Gillon, who does an excellent job. The atmosphere is good, and many good comments are made in the Q&A at the end. So none of the fears of upset are manifested, or so it appears; David Ford tells me on Saturday evening that David Thompson has written to him asking him not to change anything, ironic really as it was during David's presidency that we really began the long process that led us to this point.

Keith Humphrey is the guest, and he looks like he would make great addition to the club. I receive an email the following thanking everyone who has made him feel welcome.

My favourite comment from the evening is from John Reid, who talks about a refreshed programme with fewer Whipper meetings, since Allan gave us all a kick up the backside!!
