Dining out Peter Abbott

The club gathered on Friday, May 10, 2024 for a very special dinner honoring Dr. Peter Abbott, OBE, British Consul General to New England, and his wife, Lindsey. The British Consul General is also the Honorary President of the BOCNE, and Peter and Lindsey have been steadfast supporters of the club since Peter took up his post in Boston in 2020.  As they prepared to move to a new posting in London, the club held a farewell dinner to thank Peter and Lindsey for their kind support over the past four years. We were joined by 'The Mentalist' Mike Rebello who amazed the audience with his skills. The pre-dinner social hour also included a 'Peter and Lindsey Abbott' trivia quiz.

Photos and videos of the evening are included below.
