Esk 42 RA , tonights meeting had its moments

Headed down to Esk 42 RA tonight without Sparky who had got his head, brain and diary all in a muddle.

Very good attendance with a couple of Companions over from France,

But the points of interest were twofold, there was an Affiliation of a member from South Queensferry No 389, Peter Allan, who took his obligation from his nephew, Simon Fairly - a nice touch, and secondly, Bill Chippendale came up from the Borders and brought with him a personal friend, Richard Anderson, who he had discovered was a past principal of Esk 42 way back in 1961 / 62 / 63, and who has not been up in this area for a very long time. having returned to the fold he will be due some very very long service petitions.
