An enjoyable time was had at the Garden Party (held at our Prior's home) where some 50 Knights and Dames turned up along with postulants and invited guests. While there were lots of sandwiches, fruit and booze our Italian members also brought with them some delicious pasta dishes and fruit pies all home made along with some excellent wine.
Talks were wide ranging on lots of topics but of course lots of excitement about the upcoming International Convent. Also an interesting discussion about a local tailor who can make our Templar robes and a much reduced cost and if anything a higher quality.
A number of the guests expressed interest in joining our order and we learned that some 9 new Knights and Dames are likely to join our Priory this September.
All in all a good time was had by all.
