This year’s boat trip on 13th August is CANCELLED. The Great British Summer has intervened again. The weather forecast is awful, the temperatures – low! I have only had a few notifications so in fairness to us all I have called it off. My thanks to Terry Hardick for his patience and understanding.

I attended CBBS from 1931 to 1937, first at the Guildhall then Beechen Cliff. From Feb 1940 to Apr 1946 I was a radar mechanic in the RAF. From Spe 1940 to Nov 1944 I was in the Middle East, Palestine, Crete (1941) Egypt Cyprus, Libya, Tunisia and finally a year as instructor in Algiers. Married in 1945 we left for Canada 1947 where I joined the Federal Department of Trade and Commerce as an Inspector of Electricity and Gas. Mathematics were involved in complex polyphase (vectors) electric measurement. Very complicated formulae are used in gas orifice metering including export pipelines. I became a District Inspector in B.C. in 1954 and retired in December 1978. My wife and I travelled extensively until she died in December 2006.
I appreciated Mr. Brodie’s instruction at CBBS
