RIP Tom Fowler
Sadly our friend and longstanding member Tom Fowler has passed away.
It was Tom who first suggested the "coffee morning" meetings to supplement our club nights and he looked forward to them greatly. An accomplished film photographer and enthusiastic collector of cameras and eater of toasted tea cakes, he will be greatly missed. The portrait is by Claire Gilbert.
Victory in the Battle with Malling and Herne Bay
We were victorious in the three way battle against Herne Bay and Malling, but it was a hollow victory because Malling forgot to bring their prints!
