My name is Glenn Rosser. I'm a direct descendant of Malen 2nd. My mother Florence Rumbelow and married Laurie Rosser I guess that's how I've had the pleasure to be invited to MC this function tonight.
I haven't been involved in the committees and they've done a fantastic effort over the last 3 or 4 years in organising this function and getting so many people here.
I am delighted I'm certainly delighted to add my little help uh and any assistance I can give to their efforts and of my significance so I welcome everyone and certainly thank them for the invitation to help out.
