| A
WONDERFUL LUNCHEON TO END THE YEAR WITH |
| The last event for the Sheringham &
District Branch of the Royal Air Forces Association in 2004 was a Carvery Luncheon held in
the Officer’s Mess RAF Coltishall on Tuesday, 30th November as a result of the kind
invitation of the Station Commander, Group Captain Graham Wright, OBE BSc. MRAeS
RAF. With a maximum capacity of 100 less five RAF guests, the remaining 95 tickets were
sold to Branch Members in a week with 24 disappointed applicants on the waiting list. Our
guests were Grp Cpt Graham Wright, Sqd Ldr Mark Fixter, Station Commander RAF Neatishead,
Sqd Ldr Roger Dunnet, Flt Lt Liz Shaw, and Flt Lt Ian Forster. |

The actual Luncheon was an outstanding success. The food
was delicious, the wine was fine, the service first class and everyone enjoyed themselves.
Sir Colin Turner thanked the Group Captain for inviting the Branch and all those many
people at RAF Coltishall and RAF Neatishead, who had helped the Branch over the last 10
years. The Group Captain made a short speech and the Branch Chairman, Derek Shrigley
proposed the Vote of Thanks. The profit from the Lunch was £338.00 and the Prize
Draw £343.18 making a good start for the 2005 Wings Week Campaign. |
