WYRCC Reunion 2011

Yet another great reunion on Saturday the 15^th.

The turnout was very good, about the same as last year. Most of the regulars turned in, plus Jim & Eileen Pitchforth. Jim worked on the WYRCC from the midd 50’s into the early 60’s. Also nice seeing Darren Martin, ex- Leeds depot, there this year.

A huge “Thank you” to Sarah Jane Leahy and my daughter Caroline for selling raffle tickets again this year, they’re a great team. Also to Steve Smith (Leo Kenny) for the entertainment, very professional as always, thanks Steve.

The biggest thank you goes to my wife, Karen. Her selfless determination to keep the Reunion alive, even when she’s not too well, showed again this year. Thank you love..x x

Then there’s Dave Bland…!! His enthusiasm is great to see. (If he kisses me on the lips once more…he’s dead..!!!)

We broke even, so there will hopefully be a Reunion in 2012, if Karen has her way!

So, to everyone who turned in on Saturday…..thank you all…to those who didn’t or couldn’t come, you missed a great night..!!

VERY SAD TO REPORT THE DEATH OF KEN MASON (Former Inspector) on Thursday 6th of October.
