Hello Pete. I remember your name from those days and i served with Jock Croy (ex Jerboa Boy) in 28 Sigs Rheindahlen in 1962/63. I met him for the last time in 1969 at 3 Div. Hope all is well and that you have had a good life after the R Signals. Regards and best wishes from Mike(Prof)Boisse.

Hi All It all seems so long ago. If Jock Croy or Jimmy Snedden and Frank Herrod are still up and taking nourishment I d be glad to hear from you and anyone else who were doing thier bit at Denbury Military Acadamy for the sons of Gentle Folk 59-61. Cant say that all my time at the above was good but the choir Nijmegen and the first 10 tors let the memories flood back.

Informal get-together at the Queens Hotel from around 12.00hrs until closing. Saturday 10.00hrs As previous yearâ??s we will be doing the long walk back to camp along the River Lemon passing the old camp and calling in at the Union Inn Denbury Green for refreshments before making our way to The Jolly Sailor Ogwell. Bob Wathen will lead the way from the clock tower leaving 10.00hrs. Those who do not wish to walk there is ample car parking at the Jolly Sailor where they serve reasonably priced bar food and lunches. 19.00hrs This yearâ??s reunion will be held at a new venue The Union Inn Denbury Green in their excellent function room the number of those attending will be limited to 80. The union serves a good range of ales including local Devon Otter Ale and Wadworths 6x and London Pride along with a choice of lagers and ciders. A buffet will be severed during the evening and there will be background music available and we will hold a raffle proceeds to the Village hall fund. The bar will close around 00.30 hrs I am sure Mark and his staff will provide us with the best possible service during the evening. To help transportation to the Union I have arranged a 6-seater people carrier to be on hand to collect/ return people from/to Newton Abbot. (Subject to demand please complete booking form) The owner will make a small charge per person. Bookings are now filling up so please book now. I look forward to meeting you all in September.

Well spotted Rick that would have been one hell of a journey to arrive on the 15th September. Of course you are right it is 14th Sept returning 16th Sept all being well. Train tickets are looking rather expensive so it may be Leeds/Bradford to Exeter by air and then the whiskey flask arranged by Max Scott Taxi s to Floggit. Regards to everyone.

Vince Borda and myself are travelling from the NE down to floggit on Friday 14th May. Weighing up the odds of flying down to Exeter from Leeds/Bradford or trying to get a cheap first class ticket York direct to Floggit and try and drink the bar dry on the way there! Any one else traveling this way?
