“YOUR FIRST JOB”
Our Meeting was originally relegated to the alfresco area
of The Concord due to overlapping bookings.
However we were only one formal Speech in and we were besieged
by a large gaggle of 'tweeny' Volleyballers.
in a partitioned part of the large Function Area.
However the PA shared with the function in the other half could not be disconnected
So we moved to the Boardroom which was subsequently vacated
over 30 minutes later than we had been told.
