Geoff has a great memory and has now only to nail one name of those present. Can you help?

Many thanks to Malcolm Smith for suggesting one of the missing names and to Richard Appleton for confirming that he was once (in his own words, ahem) young, slim and good looking. I don’t think Specsavers were in business then.

Many thanks to Martin Johnson for this fine souvenir, complete with signatures, of Castle’s first Charter Dinner with the evening’s speakers listed. It was very nicely made, in the shape (when opened) of a square castle.
