Hello, Firstname
 
Wednesday 2 September
Tomorrow sees the start of the new 2020/2021 BPS year which, as is tradition, kicks off with the Chairman's Evening. Ralph Snook ARPS DPAGB EFIAP/b has promised us an evening to remember and says of his talk:

I spent some time thinking about content for the evening and in the end decided that I would go for Nostalgia in the first section, and some images from the States in the second.  
The first half recounts a trip/expedition to a remote part of Zambia a long time ago that was not without it’s amusing and unexpected content. This was one of the trips that contributed to a major change in direction for Margaret and me but more of that …..   
 
After the break, a more recent series of trips to Yellowstone (hot and cold) and then Florida, don’t worry it’s not all wildlife and there may even be one or two images with people in!

I’m going to enjoy the memories, I hope you will too, see you there.
