Hi everyone.
I've just got back from a quick visit to the Park United Reform Church, where I had the pleasure of meeting the minister, Rob Weston and our very own Midnight Runner. Thank you for the coffee!
I know the issue is going to be discussed this evening by the Church Elders, and look forward to the outcome of that discussion. Having now visited and listened to the counsel of those with a better local knowledge than I, I would be more than happy for the memorial to go to Trinity Hall. This would be as near to the original site as we can get ,and it is also under the direction of the Church Elders at Park URC.
If we get the go-ahead, I hope everyone will be satisfied with that decision/location.
I will make arrangements in the very near future to get the memorial to the Park URC so that they can make whatever arrangements for the full restoration of their boys. Once it is in their care, I can hand over the baton.
This would be a good time to say thank you to a few people who have made this all possible:
Brigdeen Fox, Liz Tait, John Chapman and Ian Cull - Members of the Thames Valley Branch of the Western Front Association.
Midnight Runner and everyone who has worked so hard to get the boys back home.
Well done one and all!
Thudders
