Just hit home base after a brills reunion at CTCRM.

Cannot reccomend enough the benefits of swinging the lantern with guys you havn't seem for nearly 25 years in some cases.

A huge well done to Billy Court and Henry Phelps for organising the weekend and a massive thank you to the RSM and mess members of the Sgts Mess for allowing us to stay there and enjoy their hospitality.

There was talk of the next event being accompanied which seemed to meet with general approval and I think it is incumbent on a few more of us to take some of the organisational weight. (I nominate Bob Pearce! He has more time on his hands than me) Watch the reunion page in the nexr G & B for pics and a more detailed write up.

Thanks for the message Sharky I will pass on the content to Henry and Scotty.
It was a brills reunion and great venue and although it was our first time at organising this sort of thing it seemed to go smoothly and I am sure that we can build on this for the next one in 2-years time.
It was great to see old faces again. Whatever sort of medication Steve Wurz is on then I want some! He must be either in some sort of youth pill or he's not done a hard days graft in years.
We ended up with 55 bods so it was a good effort by everyone!
Although Henry and myself did manage to cobble together a lot of the names. Bob Pearce did a lot of chasing around and over the last few weeks Bob did manage to swell the ranks considerably, so cheers opps. Also thanks to Russ Barker for stepping in as Company Phots and acting as Drives for the Exmouth run(on Friday)

Cheers

Billy

It seems that most responses have gone to the reunion page, so may I respectfully redirect any readers to that part of the forum for the many messages of thanks that are coming in.

As promised, I have written an account for the G & B.

Once again, apologies to Bob Pearce for any offence inadvertantly caused
in my initial post on this thread.
