Newcastle branch and some of Teeside branch are visiting Eden X POW camp, Malton, Yorkshire. On Sat 23 June. I know it is short notice but if any Tankies are in the area,it would be great to meet up for a beer or 2. After the visit we are returning to Richmond British Legion Club for eats and (I hope) more beer. Bus is leaving Newcastle 9.00 prompt. Come along and have chat.

Visited Eden a couple of years back, bit of a hike from Merseyside for a day trip but, to be fair, very interesting place glad to see people are still prepared to put effort and time into keeping, memories alive but, more importantly perhaps, youngsters being educated in the wicked ways of warfare. My 7 year old (yes I left it late in life) loved it, after I found him having discovered he wanted to play hide n seek without actually telling us!!
