On a warm and balmy evening I attended a
Court Dinner of the Worshipful Company of Paviors. The black tie event was held
in the lovely Cutler’s Hall, near St Pauls Cathedral.
This was the first time I have been
welcomed as a guest, and it seemed strange as we are normally welcoming our own
guests at our events! Dinner was provided by The Cook and the Butler, and as
always, the standard was very high.
The Principle Guest was Monty Halls, a BBC
Broadcaster and inspirational speaker to young people. He gave a very amusing
speech but focused on his favored charity the RNLI – he told us that on average
ten lives are saved every day in waters around the UK and that is why he is a volunteer
at his local lifeguard station. The RNLI is Master Ian Lumsden’s charity for
his year of office.
Many thanks to the Paviors for a splendid
evening.
