Its good to see yet again so
many faces and a particular welcome to the new members.
First a very special thanks
to Trev who has really worked hard to co-ordinate this venue to ensure its
success. He will tell us in a few
minute of how much he enjoyed
organising it !
As last year it has been
good to see that so may of you have been arranging your own link up with old
friends you have met through the reunion club to re kindle old friendships – its
always good to hear that these events are taking place in different parts of the
UK.
Hazel did me a surprise
60th birthday party last January and I was delighted to see that some
of you were there.
We have to recognise that
time marches on and naturally
will takes it toll on our health
so once again let me emphasise that when we learn of health problems
to any of our members and ex comrades then the
club should be informed.
For those of you who keep a regular eye on the website you will remember that it suddenly went off the air for quite
a while. I thought it was down to
servicing but as time went on I found that
Ken had lost his NTL link due to moving house so the website account went
into suspense. Anyway I decided to place the club site within a subdirectory
of my own website where it is now
hosted by Onetel. With the blessing of our treasurer we commissioned a local guy
to upload the site from my PC and
also provide a little training on File Transfer Protocol. The end result was
that I can maintain ( to some
extent ) the website and make minor updating changes. Hopefully our expert Ken
will back to normal to carry on
this worth while duty.
The Bradbury Mercury which we publish twice
yearly continues to be admirably edited by Tweet and Taff . We always need contributions so please
forward anything which may be of interest. We would like some of the new members
to tell us whats been happening since we saw them last. Remember this is a
lifeline to those who live abroad.
