The 2006 Annual Scientific Meeting was held in the
Marriott St Pierre Hotel and Country Club, Chepstow - just over the Welsh
border from England. One of the highlights was Thursday evening
dinner, with harpist Miss Ceri Wynne Jones providing accompanying music.
Professor Gavin Kenny (pictured left below) received Honorary Membership
of the Society, and Dr Iain Glen received a similar certificate to mark
his Honorary
Membership in November 2000.
The Chepstow Meeting was
attended by delegates from throughout Great Britain and Ireland, and from
Canada, Guernsey, Germany, Iceland, Singapore and Sweden - three continents!

Dr Allam's paper was entitled "Reaction
time monitored patient maintained propofol sedation: a volunteer safety
study".

point to a happier future"
