Our welcoming bike at 'Floral Media' - For most of our Lions this was the bike of choice in their teens! Drinks reception on the beautiful lawns. Wildflower gardens in the background. The ladies looking wonderful in their posh frocks and Ian's hair blowing gently in the wind.Fozzie and Evie looking resplendent in their evening attire pretending that this is their garden and house. Brian and Francis are so relaxed. Got onto the seat but can they get up?? Do we really have to go in for the speeches??? Best include some of the Rotary!!!! Bill Brown's definitely making the most of his greeting with Jill Key - lingering just a little too long. Enid and Barry discussing Brexit. Deal or No Deal !!!! Has there ever been a more relaxed start to a Charter?? Best get inside! The room was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Superb venue !! Incoming President comparing himself with Kennedy, Putin, Nelson Mandella and I think even Trump got a mention. Think he could be too intelligent for most of us Lions. The old handing over to the new. Love the backdrop - shame Sky TV cameras weren't there. Put this in Black and White because I think that's the last time he danced judging by the moves he was making on the dance floor!! High powered secret cabal discussing a presidential takeover but have already forgotten who's the present incumbent. Actually it was a discussion about the new Forest manager. Tony has offered his services. A great night was had by all - thanks to all who had a hand in organising it. This is for Peter - 'Great leaders carry a watering can at all times - The job is highly dependent on your ability to nurture. Be the person who tells them what they are doing right and maybe, they will grow into something amazing." Of course this doesn't apply to our Lions - we're all past it!!!!
