In reply to: BRIAN BEST 's message, "REUNION" on 13:47:01 05/07/03 Wed

Hello,Only now at 1900hrs.on August 30th spotted a small ad in the Bristol Evening Post so I've missed todays reunion.I am an old boy from the 'NASH' I was sent to TS.Formidable in 1964 until 1967. Captain Campbell,Commander Heffer and Commy Johns stick very clearly in my mind and I am upset that I have missed this reunion.Maybe someone can let me know if there is another planned?I was in 'Benbow and would love to hear from anyone with any stories from the era that I was there.I went into the Merchant Navy from there,sailing to Newfoundland from Portishead on the 'Albright Pioneer'.I'm so glad I found this site and now will obviously go through it a lot more. Many thanks, David H. Campbell>There will be a reunion on Saturday 30 August 2003
