Welcome to this area dedicated to the West Country Buglers' reunion. The moderator for this area is Gary Powell so any issues regarding this area should be directed to him in the first instance. He has the reigns to edit, delete or move your posts or split any topics that wander off topic that are made in this area. I'm uncertain if Gary wants this as a private area or a general area viewable by everyone.
You can upload your photos when making a post in any area of the forum and there are instructions here.
Please enjoy this facilty and make full use of it.
Any member of the forum who is exserving will also be made a member of 'The Countermarch' which is a private area visible only to those who are exserving or still serving. If you fall into either of these categories please let me know and I will add you to the list of members to enable you to gain access.

Hi Gary, I'm yer at last having got used to this dam contraption. I was privileged to have served with the old Plymouth Group Band way back in 1962. The band was barracked on the top floor of the PO/CPO accommodation in HMS Drake and bussed into Stonehouse barracks every day for work. After my stint with the old Victorious carrier in the far east tour, I returned in 65 when the renovation at Stonehouse was completed and the band had returned to brand new rooms.
At the time, 43 Commando (sadly no more) was stationed there and 41 Cdo at Bickley. I would very much like to join your merry crew okay? By the way, 63 this year and still plodding the beat nicking the bad guys. Dixon of Dock Green (who's he?) has nothing on me eh.

Hi Gary

Jack on line. Ex B.R.N.C. came to the Exmouth reunion last year & enjoyed myself.
Nice to see yourself Pete Prichard, Charlie Cowling, dave Buchannan, and many others. Congrats to Dave Parker for his work in tracking me down and thanks.
