ESNG meeting – 2 June 2021

ESNG meeting – 30 May 2021 – part 2

ESNG – a blast from the past!
Allan and Sean produced these excellent pictures. Some very young looking people around! First, setting up for a club night, over 20 years ago. Bartlett junior in the background of the second picture!! Then Sean’s layout – same era, but … Continue reading
Covid-19 diary – Kuritu II – 9
