First and foremost, I would like to thank all members of the Private Office Club for welcoming and looking after me during my first year. I have had so much fun coming up with interesting ideas throughout the year. THANK YOU ALL!

The latter part of 2017 saw Private Office Members enjoy the much-anticipated Family Clay Pigeon Shoot. This took place on the Cowdray Estate at Hownhall Shooting School. Some 36 guns and many followers enjoyed a day of high clays, high jinks and an enjoyable sit-down lunch for 60 in the woods.

The winning team of Double Dutchers led by most dapper of men, Dominic Gibbs (also best shot), won the event. Other prizes included best dressed, sponsored by Fortnum & Mason and awarded to Giles Adams for his brightly coloured waistcoat. I would like also to thank Landrover, Chelsea Barracks, Quintessentially Wines, 3rdHomes and James Houghton for producing the very impressive trophy.

A week later the Private Office Members were offered a unique experience with pre-Christmas shopping at Fortnum & Mason London showrooms. Champagne and canapes were served before members were given a private shopper to guide them around the iconic shop to buy their Christmas goodies.

Other events are in the process of being finalised and I will let you know in due course.
