Christmas Dinner, London, 2014

My friends Jilly and Rita had urged me to attend one of the meals organised for members of the Royal Burma Society and so, on the evening of Friday, 19th December 2014, all three of us attended the Society's Christmas Dinner held at the Amba Hotel Charing Cross, London.

The impressive facade of the station building at Charing Cross houses the Amba Hotel Charing Cross. The entrance to the hotel is behind the red bus.



The guests enjoyed an evening of good conversation and good food.



During the meal, the Italian Operatic Tenor, Yuri Sabatini moved between the tables delighting the diners with well-known operatic works.



The Royal Burma Society was founded by HRH Prince Shwebomin of Burma (who is now Patron) and Michael P. Wright (who is now General Secretary). Stan Spurling is President of the Society and Isolde Spurling is Director of Events & Communication.

Some of the members of the Society have travelled in Burma and various Charitable Donations are made, in particular to the Zay Ta Wun Buddhist Monastic Education Centre in Nyaung U.
