More than 200 UK travel sector guests sat down in Glasgow's Crowne Plaza, Thursday evening, to celebrate the 80th occasion of the world's oldest event of its kind - the Annual SPAA Dinner. Messages of congratulation from luminaries as diverse as Sir Alex Ferguson and Her Majesty the Queen were read out by SPAA President Brian Potter, who went on to introduce guest speakers John McEwan of ABTA and Advantage, and the one and only Duncan Cameron to the assembled diners.
The evening was a memorable mix of old and new, with no fewer than 8 Past Presidents of the Association in attendance, a number of whom made great play of feigning a walk-out when Duncan Cameron took to the stage! The event reached a climax with the surprise award of Honorary Membership to retiring Secretary Alisdair Tannahill, and a poignant performance by the Band of the Royal Regiment of Scotland.
