This is to keep you all informed that the Plymouth Branch RTR Association ARE still holding its annual Cambrai dinner on Sat 24th Nov at the China Fleet golf and country club in Saltash. Numbers increase each year, (77,87,133) and we have had to limit it to 150 this year. 141 are confirmed and paid so you can see that there are very few places left. If you would like to attend you will have to be quick. There is still accommodation available at the venue but it will be on a first come first served basis. Menu and application form is available on the Greenflash web site under Plymouth Branch. Suggest you contact Terry Hughes on his email address which is on the form.
Remember it is the 95th anniversary of Cambrai so all the stops have been pulled out to make it the best ever dinner night.
This has nothing to do with the 3 RTR Reunion Bristol. it is the RTR Association Plymouth Branch Cambrai dinner.

It is now confirmed that we will have 2 generals attending the Cambrai dinner this year and were hoping for a third, unfortunately David Leakey (Black Rod) is unable to attend due to Commons commitments. He is hoping to join us at the 2014 Cambrai dinner. We will look forward to seeing him them.

Well the Plymouth Branch RTR Association has had another great Annual Cambrai dinner which was held on Sat 24th Nov at the China fleet golf and country club. A total of 146 ex members of the Regiment with some guests attended many of whom attended for the first time. It was hoped that we would reach our maximum of 151 but the weather saw to that and a few were unable to get through to the venue. The guest of honor was WO1 RSM Pat Burgess 2 RTR with his wife Lisa who were amazed at the attendance numbers and the fantastic layout and presentation which was entirely due to the hard work by Terry Hughes the branch Treasurer. Many people have requested to be put on the list for the 2013 annual dinner to see if Terry can improve on what he has already done to date. After dinner speeches were kept to a minimum in order that many long lost friends could chat about old times in the glorious 3rd. As we are now one of the most favourite locations for the annual Cambrai dinner, it is thought that the main reason is the reminder of the formal dinners we all attended in the Officers and Sgts messes. The formal layout is definately a hit with everybody. The next Cambrai dinner is on Sat 23 Nov 2013 and details will go out in January.
