Just a quick reminder its Newton Abbot Reunion next Friday & Saturday. Both nights will be held in the RBL. I have arranged a small buffet for Saturday Night, due to the small numbers this year there will be no curry. Also there will be no walk back to camp on Saturday as most attending don't do the walk anyway, so it will be a lazy weekend. Dress for both nights smart casual or as you please.
Look forward to seeing you on Friday
Regards
Mike & Sue.

There are still a few people that have not booked food for the Saturday night. If you have yet not done so or know someone that has not yet booked can you please do so or ask them to do so. (If you have booked there will be a * at the side of your name). Can someone put this on the other site. The hotel need to ensure that enough meals are prepared to ensure everyone gets their choice.
Thanks

Hi all
I have just had Bob Peake on phone informing me that John Maher 91, sadly passed away yesterday.
John was senior troop sgt for Kukuri 61 - 64. I first met John after Denbury at the first Taunton Reunion in 2002 he was so pleased to meet Dixie Dixon RIP and Bob Wathen RIP both from his old troop.
John was a real gentleman and attend several reunions in Taunton & NA along with his lovely wife Jane. Jane passed away a few years ago.
After leaving the corps John became Chief Yeoman Warder at the Tower of London.
My sincere condolences to John's daughters and family.
Funeral details to be arranged.
Regards
Mike
