Dinner and Awards 2016

A lovely time was had by all at our new venue this year, the Fox and Hounds in Houston. Thanks to secretary John Spence for organising it. As usual, we began with an afternoon meeting in the beautiful surroundings and each member read a piece of writing about a favourite building.

This was followed by the annual prize giving and once again, it was great to see so many rewarded for their creativity over the year. We then enjoyed a delicious three course dinner and coffee and even the unexpected flurry of snow couldn't dampen our high spirits.

Thank you to Marc R Sherland for all the photos (unless otherwise captioned), to Wilma for making the certificates, and to president Hilary for presenting the following awards. Congratulations to all!
