Forgotten Memories
I was reminded yesterday by a strange email, that I was a member of this site, after reading that email regarding the Accrington Pals. I tried to find this web site to no avail, the emailer has sent me this address of which I had no memory. Sorry if I have not answered any posts I have been seriously ill for some time, and at my age late 80's it can take a while to recover.
Thank you

Welcome back!
Hi Walter,
I’m the strange emailer . This was the thread, post #5 https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/fo...ead.php?t=8195 Very glad to see you back posting on here and good to know you’re feeling better. Whenever you get a chance I’d love to see the back please. I’m betting on it having a Gaunt plate behind the crown and being on loops. Cheers, Luke |

Hi Walter
Pleased to see that you have made a return to the Forum. Hope that you are getting over your health problem. What is your field of interest, by the way? I'm guessing that the Accrington Pals must feature in some way. Have you seen the relatively common silver "tribute medal" for Accrington that sometimes turns up? There is a space for them to be named but the several examples I've seen never are. I can post a photo if you'd like me to. |
