As part of our ongoing relationship with RAF Northolt, Ralph Riley (our Clerk) and I were invited to attend a special black tie celebration dinner for the Battle Of Britain in the Officer’s Mess earlier this week.The whole event was themed around the RAF station in the 1940’s (see photograph of menu card) with some poignant and sometimes amusing “vignette’s” from the time which were read by current serving officers. Some of the traditions of the Mess (which were a revelation to Ralph and I!) added to the fun of the evening.
A very big thank you to the Station Commander, for allowing us to participate.
