Friday nights in the Dominions Library 3 or 4 times a term Ron "Nog" Lorimer presiding.

There was an inter House debating competition too as I recall.

I enjoyed the Debating Society. Does it still exist?

It was Michael Cherniavsky before Ron Lorimer, and for a year, the Observer Mace was ceremonially marched in ahead of the chairman and speakers.

I think Bomber Nicholson used to preside in my time.

I know I'm tired as I had to think for few minutes about that one, JR.
