AGM November 11th 2021
President’s Closing Statement.
John (Harris)is the first President in over 30 years to have served two years in office & he said “it was the
best of times, it was the worst of times”. Worst because of the members, family & friends lost
since our last AGM; best because of how well we’d bonded & kept the Club going with different
activities (quizzes, Zoom speakers, meet ups at The Cross). We’d also had more Committee
meetings than usual, found a great new venue for meetings & kept a strong group going forward.
He praised each member of the Committee & said he’d enjoyed everyone’s company but now the
time was right to pass on to an excellent new President.
The other Harris pointed out that John had also got married this year & suggested that the patter
of tiny feet might be in the offing; members were reassured by the rapidity of John’s denial.
