Our esteemed speaker for the evening was globetrotting John Beacham, one of our own!
During a trip to Mexico he stumbled across things which he then researched in his own inimitable style to produce an engaging talk for the evening, complimented by the usual holiday snaps.
Gone were the ones from the topless beaches, to be replaced by many of the ruins to be found in the equatorial forests and beyond.
Discussion and questions later followed, especially of the merits of winning "The Ball Game" which we think meant certain death to the team who won. The writer wonders of the same rules applied to the World Cup, would the teams and supporters be so eager?!
