It's been a number of years since I came back to Nottingham having left in 1998 to live and work in deepest Birmingham, so it was great when I found your web site, problem is seeing people that I remember as promising kids are now grown men. Some things dont change though, looking at the pictures of the Annual Dinner (When were women allowed?) Sue O'Brien still looks great. Can't beleive Indra that you are a grandmother now, you dont look anywhere near old enough, but you do Gary, sorry. I spent a number of years at the club from when I was 14 and persuaded by the legendary Malc Elston to "Come and have a go", some of the best times that I have ever had took place at "The Rec". Regards and best wishes to all at the club."
