Dinner for Chris Pickford, Immediate Past Master

On the evening of Friday, 15th November, the officers hosted a dinner for Chris Pickford in celebration of his year in office as Master. The dinner was held in an upstairs room at "The Gay Hussar" in Soho, London.

The Master, Dickon Love, gave a review of the year, in (rhyme!), expressed the Officers' thanks and led the toast. He also presented Chris with a framed photograph which was signed on the back by all those present at the dinner.

Later that evening, the Master led a silent toast to Rodney Meadows, who died hours after a similar dinner to Paul Carless earlier in the year, and who would otherwise have been present at this event.
