I would like to thank MR Harris for his posts.
Firstly I acknowledge the Falklands Charity and its great work, though it is only in the Falklands, and only registered as a charity in the Falklands. The aim is for the FVF to be a UK based charity, raising money for ALL veterans’ their families and all associations and groups associated with the Falklands War, not just SAMA members.
Secondly, the idea for the house was raised months ago, and one, which was discussed at length many months ago with SAMA and in letters to Dr Moonie, and at length by myself with one Jacko who at that time thought it a great idea but they had no plans for the same project, funny how things change.
Hopefully your quite shity remarks are not to be taken as any form of counter productive measures in what will be as I have stated the first UK based Falklands Charity.
Yes I do know of the existence of the Charity in the Falklands. My one point is that your charity is part of SAMA and as you will be aware, (it has been posted on this forum and discussed with SAMA) it is one of our aims to work very closely with SAMA. Though I have to say I will ask how many veterans have been helped who are not members of SAMA by your charity?
Please do not criticize people whose aims are to help and who are working to provide an even greater awareness of the plight of Falkland Veterans and their families. There were 29,000+ of us not just the 2000 members of SAMA. So it is time to work together not act like total bloody idiots who shout for no reason and without engaging their brains.
SAMA agreed to hold meetings with us over three months ago we are still waiting.
