eviltaxman Posted 2 April , 2011 Share Posted 2 April , 2011 Just got home too - hats off to Alan & Sue on another great day. This was my first time hearing Peter Hart "speak".... class, pure class. Hopefully I'll have a few pics so Pals can play "name the face" ('cos I only recognised a few!!!!). All 5 speakers did a wonderful job and I actually learned something too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egbert Posted 3 April , 2011 Share Posted 3 April , 2011 Did you address any future plans during the conference to hold the next on the continent to allow us "continentals" to attend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce Posted 3 April , 2011 Share Posted 3 April , 2011 An absoluyely superb weekend. Starting with the comradeship and real ale in the Old Contemptibles, this was a weekend I will long treasure. Every one of the speakers was excellent, each in their different ways. I learned so much. The lunch was good, and so especially was dinner. It was great to renew acquaintances, and also be meet new Pals, and be able to put more faces to names, and avatars. None of this would have been possible without a huge amount of work in organising it all by the Curraghs, to whom I think all present owe a great round of applause. I can't wait for next March 24th!

JimSmithson Posted 5 April , 2011 Share Posted 5 April , 2011 A very hearty thank you to all those involved in organising the event, with a special mention to Alan and Sue for their ceaseless work in getting off the ground what is fast becoming a Great War highlight of the year (in fact a highlight of the year full stop!) It was brilliant to see folk again and to have the privilege of hearing 5 excellent presentations. I have to travel some distance to attend and do not regret the fact at all and I will already be starting to save the pennies (OK cents) for next year. We will be putting next year's calendar for the school together soon; I wonder if the Head realises why I am avoiding anything that could put a March 24th weekend away in jeopardy! Must go now and pack for France. If you see a white Volvo with Brit plates around Arras and places in the next two weeks its probably me - say hi and maybe a beer or two could be shared.
