April Open Meeting - "Escape from Shotts" - a talk by Gary Hughes

Event type: Meeting
Date: 30th April 2026
Time: 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Venue: Biggar Bowling Club

Gary Hughes was born in the 1960s in the Lanarkshire mining village of Shotts. He and his two brothers had a difficult upbringing and Gary's escape route was via the Royal Navy, which provided him with the discipline and security he needed. He is now a Director of a large farm of Estate Agents and Mortgage Providers. The story of how he got there is fascinating and not to be missed.
