RAY POINGDESTRE
My apologies to Ray Poingdestre for misidentifying him as
Paul Poingdestre in the July Newsletter. Its inexcusable
especially in light of the incredible hospitality he provided
to Bill and me. He took us, along with President Robin
Daviet, for a full day of touring which included lunch at his
home and afternoon tea and scones. It is a memorable part
of our visit to Eastbourne.
