6. Secretary’s Report
Dave started his report by thanking everybody for their contributions in mak-
ing the last year a success. He thanked the committee for again putting on an
interesting and varied programme. Hopefully everybody found it interesting
and maybe even learnt something on the way. Topics covered last year in-

photographs spanning the six categories. The entries were again of a very
high standard and thanks to everyone who entered and made it a fun evening.
Well done to Barry Gilchrist for taking the best photo award. The members
