Talk by Andrew Baird, who says 'Power to the People'
Club President Gordon Ward welcomed members and guests to the meeting. After a short time taking the business part of the meeting first, the President then introduced our speaker Andrew Baird. As it was not possible to fix a presentation 'glitch', Andrew gave his talk on energy generation and the Governmental targets for 'renewable energy', without the aid of graphics. Andrew's excellent talk covered the current state of energy supply, the 'five pillars' for the 2020 targets and a look into the future for our planet if the targets are not reached.

Talk by Dr. Richard Burns on 'Good Practice'
Club President Gordon Ward welcomed members and guests to the meeting and then introduced our speaker for the morning Dr. Richard Burns. Richard began his talk on 'Good Practice' by saying he would be mainly speaking about his memories of his father and situations with various patients over the years. He likened the talk to a W F Marshall poem, "Me an Me Da'", and then gave a short reading of his version of the poem, much to everyone's enjoyment. What followed was then another 40 minutes of highly entertaining anecdotes from TWO lifetimes of GP practice.
