Right, for those of you who are interested in collecting, there is a large amount of stuff available of Bee’s for sale – quite what i’m unsure – so PM me with your email address, and what kind of stuff you might be interested in having, and i’ll pass it on.

If you have plenty of cash spare, and are an avid collector, it may be possible to acquire the lot. I know that there are photos, documents, and membership cards of various associations etc. It would be nice if whoever gets it would be willing to stick it all online, but thats down to the purchaser!

Best wishes,

Mark

I think the phrase I’m looking for rhymes with “clucking bell”… 😮

Well perhaps not,but it might be a good idea to bear it in mind just in case the leader’s got his calculations wrong!:eek: 😀

BUT EVERY TIME I PACKAGE THEM UP MORE COME THROUGH THE BLOODY DOOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Drives me mad. What am I supposed to do? I doubt I can even afford the postage now!

I suppose this thread title was too obscure:

I could sell the originals to buy peanut brittle too! The memorial in July (a friend of Bee’s in 87 sqdn, and in 609, and from whom he took over as Flight Commander incidentally) will be the last for a while. I don’t really have the time to arrange things this time.

The thing is, I am ‘custodian’ – they aren’t mine (or maybe they are? Not too clear on that, but I see it as being custodian). I’ll have to get them scanned some time I guess, but that takes purposeful time, and I don’t have too much of that at present. You should see my backlog!

We’ll see, something will happen.

you could always copy them with permission of course sell them off to fund another memorial, I think you could handle that

They are indeed. I just received a batch of 10×8’s of his today. Not really of my interest i’m afraid! But I figured you lot might like a peek. There are a lot of party / function / press event shots too.

I think I saw this one on here recently:

Wow,beautiful pics. 🙂 Where did you get these from?Thinking about your involvement with 609 and the subject being a Lightning,are these pics anything to do with Bee Beamont?
