Baldock (G, 70-75), Richard Worker
(G, 72-75), Toby Fiennes (D, 74-78), Matt
Robinson (H, 81-86) and Peter Hadden
(D, 88). Again, a wonderful evening of
reminiscing that was enjoyed by everyone,
including the many spouses who attended.
As three of the OWs in attendance had
flown in from Christchurch, and one from
Wellington, there was some debate as to
where the next dinner should be held. The
Rugby World Cup was not discussed! A
hot was held, though with the significant
bias towards Commoners, it was agreed
that some participants should ‘cross the
floor’. Patrick Medley (G, 70-74), the
nominal coordinator of the Australasian
Guild, attended all three dinners.
