Wednesday marked the first ever corporate day held by The Builders’ Conference at the Guards Polo Club in Windsor, Berkshire.
As usual, Lisa Smith and the team at Crest House had worked tirelessly to pull together a fun day out for some of The Builders’ Conference’s senior officers and key members. The menu was just the right mix of classy and hearty; the weather stayed largely fine; the wine was chilled; and – even to the uninitiated – the sport was an exhilarating spectacle.
But there was something missing; something indefinable; a magic ingredient to provide the icing on an already fabulous cake.
And then, just in time for the final few chukkahs of the day, HRH The Queen accompanied by HRH Prince Phillip arrived to lend the missing majesty to proceedings.
OK, The Queen didn’t quite bestow a “by Royal Appointment” seal on The Builders’ Conference; but her arrival will be talked about for years to come in Conference circles.
