Default Annual meeting
Personally I cannot do April. Generally though, Aldershot might be achievable for those in the South, West, London and near continent, but what about those living north of the Watford Gap?

Aldershot might also fill a gap for members of the Military Heraldry Society as there are no longer meeetings held south of Derby by that society.

Does anyone live in the vicinity of Aldershot to do some arranging or know of any friendly military museums/barracks etc, who might like to play host?

Lastly, is the plan to meet after the fair on the Sunday afternoon or on Saturday beforehand?

Stephen.

April is a little difficult for me after being on unpaid leave for virtually the last 2 months - the 5th of September sounds good to me. david
Either day.

There will probably be an Australian get together in Melbourne around March or when the Melbourne gun Show is on.

Hey guys, I've been thinking about this and I found the solution...We have a strong Canadian contingent, lots of Aussies and the odd Kiwi so why not try the meeting in Port Stanley, neutral territory in close travelling distance of all parties... await your enthusiastic response to my solution
