Our June Milan - Review

June Milan is usually a light entertainment affair after the AGM . But to
our great surprise this years June Milan turned out to be one of the best
evening I have attended. The 45 minutes video showing the highlights of

last 30 years of performances including the opening ceremony of our

premises by the then Prime Minster Baroness Lady Margaret Thatcher
entitled the as Down Memory Lane came as a big pleasant surprise
For members like me who recently joined the society, never imagined the
artistic excellence and energetic efforts of people involved in those years
which made the foundation of what our Society is today. It was an amazing
experience. This was followed by superb light music from Raghbir Singh
Rahi, who selected the most popular songs from the golden era taking
us further down memory lane! The evening concluded with an excellent
Preeti Bhojan hosted by the managing committee members and trustees of
