The Royal Welch FORUM

I would just like to make a comment about the forum.

Everytime I log on I make a note of the number of members that we have in the FORUM.

It is gradually raising to that magical 2000.

I enjoy the Forum very much and I am sorry that I cannot take an active part in the everyday running of it.

I am sure that we will make the 2000 figure very shortly, the way things are going.

It is without any shadow of doubt that we would not heve reached this number without those involved making the tiredless commitment of organising the everyday running of it.

I am positive that it does take a lot of time and effort and it is much appreciated.

Without the FORUM I would not have been able to have the opportunity to meet and speak to some of my old pals from yesteryear and to catch up with old times. So I thank you for that.

So once again thank you very much and keep up the good work.

Absolutely.

absolutely again.since joinning a have just had a visit with five of the boys i served with in the 70s and planning another trip..the people who run and maintaine this site deserve a medal...big thanks from me...

Ive got to agree whole heartedly. Massive thanks to all the adminstrators, etc who run it so well. It is much appreciated. The good thing I find about it is the fact that different members use it for different reasons and it serves their purpose. A few of us would definately be lost without it!!!

Clive I think you've hit the nail on the head!
This FORUM is a wonderful vehicle to talk to old friends about the times we had whilst serving. Keeping uptodate on how everyone is and as important, being informed about the people who carry on the traditions and work of the Royal Welch now and in the future.
A BIG THANK YOU to the Administrators and to all who use this brilliant forum.

Hingey

i agree with all

What a brilliant invention, The FORUM eh! Every subject has been breached from the serious stuff, like deployment news, sad stuff like obituaries and entertaining stuff like Scouse and Sid`s blog.
Keep up the good work everyone, nearly 2000 members can`t be wrong:notworthy:

Thank you Clive for starting this thread and thank you all for your very kind comments, they are very much appreciated.

I would like to thank and congratulate each and every one of our members for your contributions to the forums and for helping keep the Royal Welch Forum as one of the best around.

Special thanks and congratulations must go to Al Poole. If Al had not ‘taken the bull by the horns’ back in Oct 2005 when the previous forum membership was stagnant, and continued playing a major role behind the scenes in keeping interest alive, we might not have this wonderful virtual place so many of us consider our ‘home from home.’

Our continued success is also due, in no small part, to the continuing contributions of our stalwarts like 5haron and Richard, our ‘super moderators’; Anita Corbett; Carl Pugh; Mike Thomas; Paul Hinge; Scorch; Thom 15, our moderators and our newly appointed administrators, Paul Davies 01 and Keith Jones 89. I'd like to extend a big thank you to each of them!

While everybody is congratulating everybody lets not forget the main man in all this, the man who if it wasn't for him we wouldn't have a Forum in the first place. A very big WELL DONE & THANK YOU must go to Bob Bacon

Here here,

I and many drummers who use this forum, owe Bob and Al our appreciation big time. This forum as brought so many of us together over the past 3 and half years, 3 drums reunions later and the 4th and 5th are already in the planning.

So on behalf of all Drums Society members, Bob, Al we owe you big well done from us.


Well Done

The Forum as all are aware is a means of keeping members informed of what is going on in and around the Regiment, the comrades and of course, which we must not forget are the families. I have looked at a number of like sites and have not been impressed at what I have seen.

I agree that there is one man who is responsible for what we have and that is Bob, who, has other things related to the regiment to do, i.e. Secretary of the L of F.

I agree with everyone on this subject ,i got to meet my m8 provis after not seeing him for 20 years.
after all the years looking and asking for info on him ,the forum was the only way i got round to finding
him
then from 19 june-23june i had a visit from provis + family

i would just like to say to all the people who sacrificed their time in this forum,


THANKS FOR BRINGING A SMILE ON A EX RWF,S FACE

thanks again
