Steven Broomfield Posted 7 August , 2019 Share Posted 7 August , 2019 Can anyone assist, please? My Regimental Association is due to visit later this year and we had 9we thought) booked a slot to 'perform' at the Menin Gate. Unfortunately, an eagle-eyed member of the association checked the calendar and we are not listed. Our Chairman has been trying to contact the LPA through their website and via email but without success. Does anyone else have any contact details we could use, by any chance?

sassenach Posted 7 August , 2019 Share Posted 7 August , 2019 Are you using info@lastpost.be? I usually find that elicits a reasonably quick response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin DavidOwen Posted 7 August , 2019 Admin Share Posted 7 August , 2019 The news section on the website seems to be a bit behind. Might be worth a message via Twitter? @lastpostieper Or, dare I say it, via Facebook https://www.facebook.com/lastpostieper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Broomfield Posted 8 August , 2019 Author Share Posted 8 August , 2019 Thanks all. Our Chairman has tried the website and emailed the chap he was exchangingemails with previously - all to no avail. I suspect the calendar and website are not updated but we'll keep trying.

robertb Posted 9 August , 2019 Share Posted 9 August , 2019 I'm sorry to hear that. I laid a wreath last week, booking through the website, with absolutely no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the Pipes & Drums, regimental Association, Serving Company and Uncle Cobbley, T, lined up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassenach Posted 9 August , 2019 Share Posted 9 August , 2019 It's very unusual, in my experience, for them not to reply promptly. If all else fails, I believe the Chairman of the LPA, Benoit Mottrie, owns the Menin Gate House holiday apartments in Ypres, so you could try contacting him there.

pierssc Posted 9 August , 2019 Share Posted 9 August , 2019 August may be a factor, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
