2008 Archives

Latest update 19/07/08 - having taken some time out for various reasons, the new updates are now on the site.

We would like to thank John Turton for his much needed help in running the forum, without him we could have never done this much towards the web site and especially the forum... cheers John!

22productions.co.uk, is currently helping out with the refurbishment of the snooker rooms of the Royal British Legion (Golspie). There will be an article on this in the coming weeks.

Web site and forum, many articles are posted within the forum that do not make it here on the web site. Many contributions are provided by members, so if you're just using this as quick reference point, you're missing much much more...! So join the forum and get involved, it's free and we don't spam.

Latest update 28/04/08 - over the last few days the contributions for 'forum' members has been fantastic. Many thanks to Chris Morgan and Chris Rydings for their input, the current batch of updates involves the Gibraltar Reunion.

I'm holding back the photographs Chris Rydings has sent for the next update around the beginning of June. Hopefully the new hosting package will be complete, judging by the current 'pole' in the forum we shall be keeping the forum format as is.

Remember any suggestions for content is always welcome, so get in touch.

Latest Update 08/04/06 - added Blowpipe section within the equipment section. Altered some of the information and pictures within the other sections, many thanks to those that helped out.

Many thanks for the feedback this quarter. We had a guest book running on the old site which, proved popular. This time we are running a Forum where people can join. You can post about the web site there and you can join in on any of the other topics currently running.

New link added for the British Legion support section.

Ps,

Having feedback has given us some food for thought, we are now going to revamp the 'links' section. A new page will be created solely for 'support services', this will feature strongly from the main section and the current links format will be changed to reflect this.

2005 Archives

Latest Update 04/12/05 - firstly apologies for an absence over the last eight weeks, due to personal reasons I have been unable to deal with the administration of the site.

With the festive season approaching, we realize that there are loved ones missing from home for different reasons. With this in mind we hope that those serving are able to be in contact with their families and, for those that are now no longer with us, we know that they are remembered every day of the year and, just not on Rememberance Day.

May your God go with you. (Dave Allen)

New Equipment section coming in January 2006.

Wishing everyone all the best for the festive season and the coming year.

New links update, again many thanks for the renewed support. Anyone wishing to contribute photographs, please post through the forum and we shall select random pictures for inclusion within the actual site.

We have a new art gallery section within the general theme of the Royal Artillery. We would like to create an art gallery section dedicated to 21 Battery. We can use original art work, or if you have photographs, we can turn these into digital art work with your permission.

Latest update 28/03/05 - many thanks to the people that have joined the 'forum', we have only been running a couple weeks and the future is looking good. (Did I speak to soon?)

The 'forum' can now accept photographs, it may seem a little complicated, but we are sure you'll all get there! So come on and get posting.

Launch Date 12/03/05 - this web site is aimed at ex-members of the 'Battery' although anyone that has an interest, is free to use the site.
