Among the guests were our opposite numbers from Dundee, Aberdeen, Irvine and Edinburgh, as well as the Master of the Worshipful Company of Pattenmakers and the Master of the Worshipful Company of Cordwainers of London. As always we were delighted to welcome our friends from the Zunft zu Schumachern of Basel, led by the incoming Master and treasurer Herr Lukas Huber, attending his fifth of our Dinners.
