The speaker was Simon Hall who was amusing and interesting, he spoke about his work as a TV journalist and about the detective novels that he writes, several members purchased books from him on the night. The catering team worked very hard to produce a wonderful buffet for everyone to enjoy and the compliments were flying around.
