Somme 2016 - Thiepval Ballot

With a limited number of tickets for the main Thiepval commemoration we were going to be lucky to get any. So when our group was successful twice, winning four tickets, it was amazing. Now there needs to be some working out who will go with Cal and Trevor. I have begun looking at other commemorations in the area for those of us not lucky enough to get to Thiepval. More to follow.

We already have Ian and Paul joining the group and now Trevor Rice has signed up.

Somme 2016 - Hotel booked

Over a period of weeks I have been in email communications with the hotel in Amiens booking the rooms, directly instead of using booking.com. The hotel is fully booked and we have most of the rooms currently: Central Anzac currently: David Robinson - single Ken Fulton - single Calvert Price, Neil Dalton, Ian Gardner - triple Elaine Constable   & Ken Sole - twin Paul Devall & Claire Devall - double Ian Jenkinson and another - twin Trevor Rice - double Thirteen of us going. The largest turnout ever.
