TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN...

I lived in Mauritius in the 1960s and would like to get in touch with two people, the daughters of two British Navy officers. Anna Calendar and Jane Lavender ( i seem to remember that her father was the commander of the base). Is it possible that you could point me in the right direction to start looking?

Kind regards

Sally Bathfield Gallarelli

27 Apr 09 - Received this from Ian MacGillivray today. Contact Ian direct if this is yours!

I lost my cufflinks when I was staying in the Inverness Palace Hotel for this year's AGM and the cleaners did a search for me. They did not find my cufflinks, but they did find a gold coloured blazer button. I know that if you lose a blazer button it is almost impossible to replace it. It would be good if you could show this on the website and if this belongs to any of our members, they can contact me and I will mail it on.

Many Thanks
Ian

Help for Heroes - A message from Carl...
Apparently there is a rumour running rife that now that Help For Heroes has got enough money to pay for the swimming pool at Hedley Court they are going to give any surplus to the British Legion, this is WRONG.
All the monies that they have now will not be enough to cope with the injuries of the present personnel, never mind the future.
So if you hear this rumour please squash it and also spread the news through your Assoc and any magazines or web sites that you belong to.
Thanks

RED FRIDAYS

Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing Red every Friday.
The reason?
Englishmen and women who support our troops used to be called the 'silent majority'.
We are no longer silent, and are voicing our love for Country and home in record breaking numbers.
We are not organized, boisterous or over-bearing.
We get no liberal media coverage on TV, to reflect our message or our opinions.
Many English people, like you, me and all our friends, simply want to recognize that the vast majority of Britain supports our troops.
Our idea of showing solidarity and support for our troops with dignity and respect starts this Friday and continues each and every Friday until the troops all come home, sending a deafening message that every Briton who supports our men and women afar will wear something red.
By word of mouth, press, TV -- let's make Great Britain on every Friday a sea of red much like a homecoming football team.
If every one of us who loves this country will share this with acquaintances, co-workers, friends, and family, It will not be long before Britain is covered in RED and it will let our troops know the once 'silent' majority is on their side more than ever,certainly more than the media lets on.
The first thing a soldier says when asked 'What can we do to make things better for you?' is...'We need your support and your prayers'...
Let's get the word out and lead with class and dignity, by example; and wear something red every Friday.
