This is to inform you that the Club will be holding its Annual General Meeting on Tuesday the 1st of May 2007 at 6:00 pm and you are very welcome to attend. The AGM will be held in the Board Room at ScotsCare, 37 King Street, Covent Garden, London WC2E 8JS. For those of you who have not been to King Street before it leads off from the north-west corner of the Covent Garden Piazza and the ScotsCare premises are clearly signed about 100 metres from the Piazza itself (Scotscare was formerly known as the Royal Scottish Corporation). Our President, Simon Card OBE, is retiring from the post after three-years of service and one of the main objectives of the AGM is to elect his successor. The agenda for the AGM and the subsequent committee meeting is as follows:

3. Treasurer’s Report.

4. Election of the new President of the Club.

5. Election of committee members.

5. AOB.

We plan to conclude the business of the AGM and the committee meeting by 8:00 pm and Members and FPs who attend the AGM are welcome to stay for the committee meeting and join us for a drink afterwards in a nearby pub. If you are planning to attend the AGM please reply to this email and let me know you are coming. If you have any items that you believe should be added to the agenda please let me know in advance. Lastly, we plan to discuss how to recruit new members into the Club and, if you know of any former pupils of the Royal High School who are living in the South of England, please pass me their contact details and I will get in touch with them.

Best Regards,

Alex Prentice

Honorary Secretary
