1. 2. 3. DELICIOUS LUNCH, CAPPED BY A GREAT SPEAKER EMG Christmas lunch ticked all the boxes The date may have been Friday the 13th, but superstition was set aside and everything was festive and fun at the 2019 EMG Christmas Lunch, held in the very comfortable surroundings of the refurbished Boarders’ Dining Room on 13 December. The lunch attracted an excellent attendance of more than 250 EMG members and partners, who enjoyed a scrumptious buffet of Christmas fare, including a variety of delicious desserts. Oldest Old Boy present was the sprightly 102-year-old Arthur Atkins (‘34). The guest speaker, Lord Mayor of Melbourne, Sally Capp, was most entertaining, setting out her priorities for making Melbourne an even better city than the one that ranks as one of the world’s most liveable. Outgoing EMG President, Bill Philip (‘46) was farewelled, and received the guests’ accolades for all he has done during his term in the top job. Bill passed the presidential baton to Ken Jasper (‘55). It was yet another highly successful EMG function, which ticked all boxes for fun, friendship, great food and an excellent speaker PATTY WALLACE-SMITH 1.
