Rotarian Peter James kindly drove me again today and in fact is taking me to the RC of Clay Cross on Thursday - He must really like my talk.
On arrival at the club we were met by a number of members and made very welcome. President Graham also greeted us in similar fashion. There is certainly no shortage of Rotary Fellowship here.
Long Eaton is one of a relatively small band of clubs that enjoy a three course meal, which I have to say was extremely tasty and most efficiently served and cleared by the staff of Cleve Lodge. After the meeting a few matters of business were dealt with before President Graham had the privilege to induct not one, but two new members.
First on the list was Rotarian Kevin Miller, a politician, followed closely by Rotarian Christopher John Bowley, an anaesthetist. They were warmly welcomed into the club by members of the club and myself.
Unfortunately immediately following his induction Rtn Kevin had to leave early for other pressing business.
Following on from the inductions President Graham invited me to address the Club. I gave my talk to the club, following my usual pattern, presenting President Graham with a letter from RI President Sakuji and an origami crane. (The significance will become apparent when I make my visit to your own club.)
