SCARA 2014 Annual Reunion Lunch

Post date: Jan 12, 2015 8:37:16 PM

Who would have thought that Friday 31st October would turn out to be the warmest Halloween on record in the UK? A temperature of 23.6C was recorded in Gravesend, Kent and Kew Gardens, Greater London, surpassing the previous record of 20.0C. Well this caught some of us out, including The Grand Connaught Rooms, the venue for our reunion. One female member had to pop to the shops to purchase a thin blouse to replace the wool jumper she had arrived in; and that was before the excitement of meeting old friends and colleagues! And the Connaught Rooms management initially turned off the air con as they thought it might be too cool for us…..

We were very pleased to welcome Lady St. Johnston as our guest once again and it was her pleasure to present the winner of the 2014 Golf Challenge with the cup which went straight back to Steve Barraclough who also won it in 2013. We were also delighted that our President Robert Woods was able to be with us this time.

The list below shows the names of those who reserved a place at the reunion luncheon. Unfortunately some did not manage to attend due to unforeseen circumstances. The pictures received from members have been posted on the PONLHeritage website. If anyone else has photographs of the lunch, we would be glad to post those to the website too.
