On Saturday, 6 March 2000, a neighbour and former Mayor, John Warne, gave a buffet reception for a group of Nigerian headmasters and headmistresses who were in Britain for a course at the College of St Mark & St John, Plymouth. The Mayoress and I were invited to meet the visitors and welcome them to Tavistock.

Here are some pictures of the event.
