I was pleased along with Sue, to be invited by Neil Turrell to his last Senior Speech Day before he retires next year. We had a super afternoon and it was good to have two past president’s of Riverside prominent on the stage. Richard Ratcliffe was Guest of Honour and gave a nostalgic speech as an Old (very old!) Maidstonian and both he and Neil were able to give our club a plug on more than one occasion. It was my first visit to the school for many years, my youngest son left there some 15 years ago and I retired as a School Governor around that time. Co-incidentally, or not, it was then that Richard, myself and the late David Wood joined other similar groups who were all suitably rounded up by Mike Whitfield and his merry gang to form the Riverside Rotary Club. There were was quite a presence of Rotarians at Speech Day so all in all we did very well. Let’s hope that some of those remarkable young people who we saw and listened to, one day become Rotarians themselves.
