high from a day of exhilaration
and a sense of achievement. Rooms of mixed companies allowed us all to make new friends and come together as a group to play cards, pool and sample each other’s culinary skills. One particular highlight was celebrating Officer Cadet Buckley’s 20th birthday where I’ve lost count
