General Discussion / HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024!
« Last post by MR on 24 January, 2024, 12:49:54 AM »We've had (muted) "western" Christmas and New Year celebrations here in Vietnam and the country will soon come to a standstill as the bulk of nearly 100 million residents travel home to celebrate the advent of 2024 Lunar New Year ("Tet") with their families: Chuc mung nam moi!

General Discussion / Recognition at hospital
« Last post by Ian Lynch on 16 December, 2023, 12:07:44 AM »Had a coloscopy on Friday. In the recovery room eating my sandwich's and having a drink when a guy starts staring at me.
Can I help you I said
He said I know you
No you don't said me
Yes I do he says
After a while he says I know you. You were the lifeguard at the Terendah pool in 1964.
He was right so I don't think I have changed much then

General Discussion / Pam's new email address + bulk listing
« Last post by MR on 18 November, 2023, 12:17:10 PM »Greetings everyone - delighted to share the good news that website owner Pam has finally managed to go virtually full circle and get her "forever email address" back online, thanks to website host Poul. So please adjust your contact lists to dump Pam's earlier gmail and/or "binn" addresses and replace with the one circulated a few minutes ago to bulk email list members as shown below (email addresses removed for security reasons; if required, please email me direct or leave a message on this thread).
Cheers
Scouse/MR on behalf of owner Pam, mine host Poul, admin Lee, and moderators Pam, Lee, me, Ken.

General Discussion / Another new member for MB
« Last post by MR on 05 November, 2023, 11:14:57 AM »Greetings all!
You have probably already noticed a new member "Bob" mentioned on the MB. Bob is Robert "Bob" Doe, former 6 Light Regiment LAD REME, Jan 65 - May 68. He posted on the GB asking questions about the Shades of Blue and if a copy of their record 'In the Midnight hour' was on the 208 site (as far as we can tell, it disappeared along with other stuff during one of the recent website reconstructions, but site Admin Lee Burgess found 3 links that might help him locate a copy). Bob says he's here because "I like looking at the photos and memories". Don't we all!
We don't know if Bob's time in 28 Bde overlaps with Eddie Roberts' (REME att 208 Sigs, early 1960s), but they'll surely work that one out by themselves!
In the meantime, Bob's email address has been added to the bulk emailing list for emergency use when contact via this MB is not possible. If you haven't received a copy, please let me know on this thread or by direct email to linhmartin@yahoo.com
Cheers, Scouse/MR

General Discussion / Help with technical issues on this MB
« Last post by MR on 26 October, 2023, 08:48:24 AM »G'day all!
It's not technically possible for the SMF software used to create this MB to send emails to users seeking assistance with registration, resetting passwords, changing user details incl. avatars, etc. If you need assistance with any of those or similar "technical" issues, simply explain the problem and email it to 208admin@marsden.me.uk - where it will be automatically forwarded to website Admin Lynn "Lee" Burgess for review, follow-up and (hopefully) resolution.
If anyone tries (or has tried) that approach unsuccessfully, please post the details in this thread (including dates) so they can be read by and/or forwarded to Lee if necessary.
Cheers, on behalf of owner/moderator Pam, Admin Lee and moderators MR and Outback Traveller
