It has been
a busy time since my last entry a couple of weeks ago.
I visited Ysgol Gogarth in Llandudno on Monday 7th April and was pleased to learn and report to you that we will
be going ahead with the classroom/observation room as a memorial to dear
Marj. The building will be called Hafan
Marj (Marj’s place) and should be
completed in about 12 weeks.
Agenda,
minutes, menus, guest lists, seating plans, ‘meeters and greeters’ allocated and ceremonial
for the Election Court and the lunch have been settled. 3rd April found me and the Clerk at the
service in St Bartholomew the Great to celebrate the presentation by HRH Prince
Charles of their royal charter to the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage
Drivers followed by lunch at Haberdashers Hall.
The lunch was a fine affair and I was entertained throughout by a taxi
driver who had actually shaken the Prince’s hand. We had a lively conversation. In the evening my bailiff David and I
attended the Lord Mayor’s dinner for Masters and guests at the Mansion House; a
truly memorable day. Next day we were at
St Pauls for the United Guilds Service which is always memorable too, due to
the scale of the event, the address by the Dean and the singing of the choir. The Dean focussed on leadership and
fellowship amongst the Livery. The
Bishop of St Asaph attended as my guest.
