Re: OOC Posts I
Okay I'll do that today. Same thread as we've been posting in?
Being the Royal Geographical Society the event will have some famous and titled people at it. No more than about twenty people, not including the party. Alexander has been promoting the book for several weeks at various venues, but this is his last one.
Of interest to our pilot would be Major General Percy Cox, Commanding officer in Mesopotamia and Palestine and then High Commissioner of Iraq and Iran. A future president of the society.
Gertrude Bell, currently in London visiting family.
Francis Younghusband, famed soldier and explorer of Tibet.
Francis Rodd, Explorer of Egypt and ex military intelligence.
David George Hogarth, elderly Archaeologist.
Leonard Darwin, son of the famous Darwin.
Laurence Dudley Stamp professor at Rangoon, home on leave.
And the Earl of Ronaldshay Lawrence Dundas, current president.
Just for background fluff if that's okay with you Keeper. Apart from Gertrude Bell, they are all past and future presidents of the Society.
I was thinking that Alexander will have arranged for a private room for the party to congregate afterwards to talk.
