As the Club Annual Awards were so successful last year they were held again at the Royal Wootton Bassett Rugby Club for the third time and again was a very successful evening.
Over 90 members attended in what turned out to be a great night, the members were met with pre-dinner drinks and had time to chat before dinner began, the food was good and the service was brilliant with the staff from the Rugby club being as attentive as normal.
Who needed a guest speaker when we had our own compère, Mr Richard Buss who with his wit, sense of humour and brilliant display of photographs and awards slides made for a magical evening.
