The end of the week saw Daphne and I attending the 40th Charter Dinner of the Rotary Club of North Fife. This is a Club with which I have had a long association from well before the time when I was their Assistant Governor, so it was an especial pleasure. We were regaled by a succession of good speakers following an excellent meal. I also had the great pleasure in awarding a Paul Harris Fellowship to one of their members, Phil Higginson, for his activities both in bringing much needed dental aid to indigenous people in South America, by taking a mobile surgery on a comparatively small ship up the Amazon, and for his fund raising and practical assistance in support of the Kigali School Project. All this took place against a background of good company and excellent surroundings in St. Andrews and it came as quite a shock to find that it was already after midnight before we headed home. Thoughts of a very early start later in the day did nothing to dampen the enjopyment.
