On behalf of everyone at the club can we wish Nigel McNally a belated Happy Birthday.  Nigel reminded me last weekend that I had forgotten his birthday and that he just wanted to remind everyone that he was now 56 years young and looking forward to his second year competing the Senior Fours.  Many happy returns Nigel we hope you had a great day.
