Reunion 2006
Friday, September 8th. The advance party started to arrive at the Warwick Hilton Hotel after lunch and, after the 'meeting and greeting', enjoyed an informal evening meal together in the Britisserie Restaurant. Those who wished were then able to watch the DVD of the 2005 RSA Reunion at Blandford and the SO-in-C's latest 'History of the Royal Corps of Signals'.
The following morning 23 members with their companions made their way to Warwick Castle on a visit masterminded by John & Joyce Horne. Here they explored the buildings and watched Birds of Prey, Archery, Sword Fighting and other demonstrations whilst other members explored Warwick town.
During this time the Main Party had arrived and were busy renewing old acquaintances in the Café Cino. Recently acquired association Christmas cards were on sale and Maureen Soward used her well honed marketing skills to reduce the number that she had to take home with her.
Association President, Colonel Colin Gilbert, welcomed members to the 14th reunion and Chairman, Lt Col Pat Soward, read the names of 13 members who had died since our last reunion.
