February
2003
| The
late but very enjoyable AGM weekend for 2002 took place on Saturday 1st
February 2003. Although the Eastern side of the country had blizzards
the night before, the turnout was good and as usual all arrived with smiling
faces and ready for a good time. The Mess opened for the Friday
and Saturday nights so for some this was a double reunion, plenty to drink
and certainly no shortage of conversation or jokes. |

The accommodation
was much improved on last year with central heating working and good draft
free rooms but we were all amazed to see ALL washbasins with plugs fitted.
We assumed this must be some new strategy and decided not to ask questions.
The
AGM went very smoothly and four new members were introduced these being:-
John
Bishop, Dickie Hudd, Brian Blackmore and Tony Blake.
The
people who spend the time and effort running the Group were all voted
back into office and they must know that their work is appreciated by one
and all.
However
the latter part of the meeting stalled a little when once again the suggestion
of people attending who didn't jump at El Gamil. Let's hope
this one is settled once and for all at the next AGM.
The
dinner was excellent and this was appreciated by passing the cap round
for all who made the effort. In fact all meals were good and a hearty breakfast
sets you up for the trip back home.
Roll
on the next one.
As mentioned
in the previous newsletter, it would really be appreciated if members sent
their subs (£12) before the AGM. This would give Bruce (Treasurer)
that extra time to enjoy the get together like the rest of us certainly
manage to do.
You
may have noticed more people are using the internet, this is sometimes
not accepted by some people as they incorrectly think it is above them.
Not so ! At least three members have made contact and it all started with
their Grand Children using computers. They soon acquired an email address
and Hey Presto
It's
contact time.
