Borneo 50th Anniversary Reunion

REMINDER

Tickets for the Reunion are starting to sell quite quickly and all sorts of old muckers are emerging from the dim and distant past, blinking in the jungle sunlight and trying to remember where they left their water bottle. Ex-riflemen living all over the UK, in France, Spain and even Australia are blowing dust off photograph albums and putting names to faces, while their wives and partners are thinking “oh dear, he’s going to start talking about Bario and Sapit and all those other strange places again”. Raffle prizes donated so far include a parang and a Border Scout’s shirt!

So, don’t miss this chance for one evening to catch up with old friends and re-tell the stories, as the 50^th anniversary of our arrival in Miri just before Christmas 1962 approaches. The cost of the evening is £35 including a Malaysian three course dinner, in the John Howard TA Barracks, Milton Keynes MK14 5NG on 1^st December 2012 from 7.00pm.
