Tuesday evening was a very special occasion for RIBI President Ian Thomson and me as we attended a joint meeting of the South Fife Clubs hosted by the Rotary Club of Dunfermline Carnegie as our first visit within the District. All of the clubs were represented along with Assistant Governors Sandy Matthew and John Brewster. A special guest from across the Forth RI Director Gordon McInally was also present. Club President Janet Lowe and the members welcomed us all to their superb meeting place the headquarters of Dunfermline Building Society. A special surprise awaited Ian in the form of a Civic Reception hosted by Provost Francis Melville Ian being a Dunfermline lad born and bred found the occasion very moving. Both Ian and myself were presented with mementos to mark the evening from Provost Melville. Ian in return presented Provost Melville with limited edition Rotary print. What a superb event, my thanks must go to Janet and her team who made the meeting something to remember.
