There was a good turn out at The Memorial Stone, both 550 association members and local people, and a similiar number attended the Church service.
Fourteen people attended the dinner on Saturday evening dinner and twenty-four for Sunday lunch when we were joined by the East Halton RBL group. It was great to have a proper get-together again.
