Tonight we were very pleased to greet our guest from China, Lan, Di BD5SLD.
Lan, Di was pleased to meet all the members and to have the grand tour of the Club room and shack.
Lan,Di is pictured below with the attending members of tonight’s meeting at Fort Paull.
Congratulations are in order once again to the intermediate class on all passing their exams.
Mr Kevin Simms (M6EYR now 2E0KVK) , father and son teamwork from Pat Walsh (M6BPW now 2E0KCW), Steve Walsh (M6OKB now 2E0OKP)
Well done Guys from all at the Club, we all know that Team Walsh had a few beers to celebrate later that night.
Mr Kevin Simms (AKA Bear Grylls ) had to rush off to his son’s 21st birthday held at a private fishing lake, Kevin was also partaking in a night fishing with his sons, Kevin was keen to show his sons he was no coward to camping out overnight, and in true Bear Grylls style, he set up his camp.
We are told that a fire was lit and BBQ could be smelt miles away as Kevin lead the way for a night’s fishing. Much beer had to be consumed by all but mainly by Kevin for him to fall into his survival bag and shiny tent.
In the night Kevin did not catch much fish, but had many a visit from the local wildlife which made a night under the star all worthwhile NOT.
Kevin, you’re a Sport and we all know your Sons enjoyed the night along with you.
Pat was set up by his own Dad and the Members of Humber Fortress DX ARC to be searched by The Northern WWII re-enactment association as he rolls up to Fort Paull for the radio Club.
“Poor lad wondered what hit him”is so funny.
It was nice to meet Steve W4SLT after years of talking to him on 20m across the Pond, Steve had come over to Visit Peter Rodmell G3ZRS and his Friend.
Steve wanted to pop along to Fort Paull to meet the guys and see the radio club for himself he had spoken to so many times.
Contact was made and an invite was soon sent out, Steve came along with Peter and wife Gwen who are often guests down at the radio club.
We give Steve the grand tour of the fort and club he really enjoyed looking at and taking photos of the Blackburn Beverley.
The night was finished off by Steve in a shack working a pile of G stations on 40m.
All in all a nice night out for Steve and the members of the club got to meet the voice they had spoken to so many times.
Cheers Steve talk soon
From all at the Club
