Fundraising Dinner
Luck was added to the dinner preparations and came up with a warm summer evening in April. Guests were welcomed with aperitifs and wonderful piano music from Simon Gutteridge. Our guests of honour, among a very honourable and lively bunch, were Ellen Terry Craig and Bunty Taylor, Ellen Terry’s great granddaughters, together with Tony Taylor, Bunty’s husband and a perfect gentleman. Carlo’s cooking was as delicious as ever and the jazzy musical entertainment by Polkadots and Moonbeams, otherwise known as Jack Ross and Karina Fernandez, was a highlight. We were very fortunate to have secured the services of Ricardo (aka Richard White) as our wine waiter and senior waitress Ros Cornford who showed flair and admirable control of her apprentice Francesca, who would definitely get the job.
Thank you to all of you who came to this event and were such essential contributors to its success. We look forward to seeing you all again!
