The first visit of the week is back up to Aberdeenshire and the Rotary Club of Oldmeldrum. The club meet in the very cosy surroundings of the Redgarth Hotel. What a great welcome I received from President Anne Forster and the members, along with most of their partners. The club is one of the most active clubs in District 1010, and have won a few awards for their efforts both at District and National level. They have a hugely busy calendar with many projects and events planned this year. The recent work they had undertaken in developing a garden area in Oldmeldrum was featured on television on Saturday evening news. The event was a huge success and was opened by Jim McColl of Beechgrove Garden fame. After a great meal, some amusing banter and my address we finished the evening off with a game of Call My Bluff ably hosted by none other than Hilary Gordon. I felt really at home and was very privileged to share such great fun and friendship shown by all. I look forward to seeing them all again soon, who knows I may even get a game of cricket.
