No Simon, I think you may have made a mistake with the timetable.
I think you'll find that the running order is as follows:
7 pm - health and safety inspection of the beverage arrangements
7.30pm - Dinner & Awards
9pm - Perry McCarthy
I am taking my H&S role in the Club very seriously and, having done a risk assessment, have decided that you all need protecting from the hazards of attending the Champagne Reception 😬 hick!
