Talking about cars. I have this week after 40 years of buying the Jag XJ finally thrown in the towel. This one was nearly £80k new 2 years ago this month. 5240 miles on the clock. They gave me £29k for it at the weekend. Over the years it has cost me a fortune. Now getting a Hyundai Tuscon premium SE.
TALK ABOUT THROWING MONEY AWAY.

We have some good news about the Memorial Bench we purchased for Bob Wathen. John Berkinshaw has been in contacts with NA council and has found a place not far from the Cross in the centre of NA. John has kindly offered to look atter the bench Pete Whitfield has offered to help move it to its new location. Also we do not have to worry about any insurance implications as NA will take care of this. Jim (Chalky) is in full agreement as so am I. I think all that made donations to purchase this Memorial will be in agreement that it is time we put this bench where is can be appreciated by all. Great Job John.

Had you 2 not corrected Terry Reynolds I would have. It is without doubt that the so called "Original" Denbury Boys was "Fragmented" by it's owner and overseers who seem to think that they have the rights and privileges to decide who can say what, about what and when they can say it. I was refused when I applied to re-join after getting fed with the owner and overseers acting like lords and masters. Have to say "NOT" missed it at all.
Denbury Days is the best medium for us to remain in contact with each other without the "Wannabe" pretenders having any say. Thanks for that Tony.
Oh! have not seen Owner and overseers at any reunion for many a year.

Chalky,
I knew someone who tried the Range Rover for a change after many years having BMWs and was most disappointed with the Jag Land Rover service level. A big mistake he said and it will be his first and last JLR car. In a way I suppose it could be appropriate to say TaTa.

For Diane Evans regarding Captain Ronald Ernest Nunn
From 1951 to 1955 Denbury Camp was the Depot Regiment for the Royal Signals prior to being a Boy Service unit, have found the following for the Royal Army Service Corps in the London Gazette:
'Lt. (War Subs. Lt.) Ronald Ernest NUNN (375899) from Emergency Commission Indian Army to be Lt., 1st Jan. 1947, with seniority 23rd Nov. 1944'
Therefore your grandfather was at Rawlinson Barracks aka Denbury Camp prior to 1951 as it was a Royal Army Service Corps camp from 1947 to 1951.
Hope this helps

Chalkie - Thanks for your remarks about this the Denbury Days website - look forward to meeting you at Barnsley Reunion later in the year.

Chalky, you would have been ok had you bought the Honda CR-V 2.0i, MMD SR CVT, thats an AWD model by the way!!!

Hi All,
My Name is Mervyn Foster G4KLE and although I didn't attend Denbury, I must know a few of you as I joined in 1966 at Catterick and it was when Denbury was closing and a number of you arrived and took places on Radio Op/RTg courses at 24 Sig Regt. I am a Radio Amateur with the Royal Signals Amature Radio Society (RSARS) and have been asked to hold and operate the Denbury Amateur Radio Club Callsign G3PYZ on behalf of the RSARS.
I served for 24 years in R Sigs and some of our paths must have crossed although 13 years were spent in and out of Hereford as well as in Hong Kong with QG Sigs.
My Request is, if you have any photos of the Amateur Radio Club at Denbury ( I already have 2) then I would like to display them on the Amateur radio site for G3PYZ on a website for Amature Radio Sites (QRZ.com).
I contacted Tony and he suggested I post this message. Thank you in advance and maybe we have met (I finished in 1989 at Hereford as WO1 (YofS).

When Dave Silburn's wife asked for any comments about her husband, I thought I would reply, on, reflection, perhaps I should have used the word original rather than real but that is now gone, I wasn't looking to dig up old war stories or slag people off, but to help her in her request, people should remember the lies told at the time, not to slag off the 'owner' of the original site, who surely is allowed to say what is going on the site he runs.. end of..

There is one thing for sure no matter what car you choose you are certain to loose money. The Jag XJ just lost more than others except perhaps the Range Rover. The reasons are many for the XJ but production is now finished and the "NEW" XJ is all electric. Secondly diesel is now dead in the water and across the board we will see prices of diesel cars drop.
My new one is petrol and will probably see me out.
