that should be a nice day for them, best of luck, hope the weathers nice

I'll have some of that, cheers for the info.

Fabulous day! So glad the rain pretty much held off apart from a few spots. Lovely to see the 3 gentlemen presented with their medals from the Sandpit along with both Sqn's getting the Freedom of Entry to the Borough! The photo calls at the end resulted in a lot of giggles

Thanks to all of them, not only for a great day, but for all they do

It was good to see them being honoured. Went to the Zeebrugge Commemoration in Wallasey yesterday too, that wasn't a bad one either, pity there wasn't a bad though. Good turn out.
