Tom Robinson

We are sad to report the death of Tom Robinson who has died after a long battle with cancer.
Tom, an ex paratrooper,  has been a member of North London for a long time and has more recently been in the ranks of the tuggers. Our sympathy goes to his wife Barbara.

Bungay cancelled (yet again)

Having said that Bungay was going ahead I'm sorry to say that Ken, our steward has pulled out and we are unable to find a replacement so without a steward we have no option but to cancel the meet. We are very sorry to have to do this but circumstances are beyond our control.

Are you going to Newark for the AGM?
The MCS are providing us each with a BBQ pack and we will be having a communal lunch on the Saturday. In order to do this we will need as many people as possible to bring their barbeques along so don't forget yours or you may be eating raw meat! We will provide a salad to go with the meal.

Easter meet

posted 9 Apr 2012 08:04 by Web Admin

Many thanks to Kent group who hosted our Easter weekend in Canterbury. They had 44 units turn out. How many were from NLEA? I've no idea but there seemed to be a lot of us there and we showed them how to quiz.
Just a pity they didn't remember to order some sunshine for Monday morning.
