Thursday lunchtime was my 60th Club visit of the Rotary year and just happened to be to my own Club, Dundee. It was a somewhat strange experience being there after so many weeks away, but also entering the Club as Governor rather than just one of the members. However, any such feelings soon evaporated with the warmth of welcome from our Fellowship team of Charlie, Gordon and David. All the other members from President Graham down were equally welcoming and it was nice to be home, for all the many pleasures I have had from visiting the other Clubs in District. It was also great to catch up with all the Club news, with ambitious plans for the youth side of Rotary(watch this spot), very successful fund raising events and every one eagerly looking forward to the District Conference in just over a week's time. It was a very suitable occasion to thank all the Club members for the tremendous support which they have given to me and Daphne, and especially the Conference Planning Committee who have worked their socks off to organise a Conference which has something for everyone and will make for a very happy week-end. More Club visits are the order of the next few weeks but it was really nice to touch base, if even for a short time. I look forward to welcoming many of the Club members next Friday in Aviemore.
