30. RAF Northolt – Annual Reception


Because of longstanding links with the Water Conservators, RAF Northolt invited Fiona and I along to their Annual Reception this week. On a mild, dry but windy evening, the reception was held outside the Officer’s Mess.


Guests included local dignataries, business people, friends of the RAF and us! It was a very splendid affair with split second timing, alcohol and delicious canapés. The highlight was seeing the RAF band in full flow and a great demonstration of precision marching. Just as the National Anthem was completed, and the sun was about to set, we were treated to a fly-past by a Spitfire – wonderful.
