It was an honour to have the High Sheriff of Bedfordshire, Ismail Anilmis DL as our VIP guest speaker at our club meeting last week.
We enjoyed a thoroughly entertaining and informative Q&A session, run by our very own "Parky" president Stephen, which was followed by the weekly sporting challenge. A put nearest the fiver battle ensued, with club member Don Gillett coming out narrowly on top.
A great evening for all.....

Another evening of fellowship with President Stephen interviewing Castle member Howard about his childhood 'oop' north and his career with Texas Instruments in Bedford and the wider world. A fascinating chat with our own Parky.

This was followed by the weekly president's challenge, which this week was rugby skills. Leigh and President passing a ball across the room, spin passes allowed. Three lives, lose a life for a dropped ball or poor pass. As usual Charles was the honest referee. Leigh being a former forward was up against a former fly-half [a miss-match]. The game went on for some time, nether player wishing to lose. Leigh reverting to a hooker's throw-in managed to dislodge the ceiling [no serious damage]. Eventually Leigh won.

Last week we enjoyed a fabulous night of fellowship with fish, chips, b**r and darts, all courtesy of the Devonshire Arms and the Denmark St Fish n Chip shop.
An expertly organised darts tournament was had with the whole evening pulled together by Rotarian Steve Spring .
Rotary at its best.

15/07/2026

After a game of Brucie's Play Your Cards Right for the President's first challenge of the evening (commiserations to Chris Kilroy for not winning the prize pot), we were treated to a second challenge of the night with a round of indoor bowls. Rotarians Spring and H***e battled it out, with Paul H***e coming out victorious and scooping the nights spoils, which were presented by President Stephen.

Tonight's President's Challenge was won by Rotarian Rex Elliott who putted closest to the fiver and pocketed the lot, much to the disappointment of fellow club member Don Gillett.
President Stephen has introduced this fun element to this year's programme which promises to be full of laughs.
