It gives me great pleasure to announce on behalf of the North
West Area Branch and the Adjudicators that, in recognition of his outstanding
contribution to both the East Midlands Branch and to the Association as a whole,
the recipient of the Alan Rusling Memorial Award for 2007 is
JOHN
CURTIS.
Many congratulations John, well deserved.

Good morning all,
I would like to thank the members who nominated me, the
committee for selecting me and all you good members who have sent their
congratulations.
I am a very willing member of the East Midlands Branch who
has never volunteered for anything
(I learned never to volunteer as a young Corporal)
However anyone who knows our secretary Bernard Lamb knows he
can be very persuasive.!!!!!
I have enjoyed being in this Association right from its humble
beginnings in 1983, and will continue to do all I can to promote and support
it.
Long may it flourish.
Thanks again to all concerned
John
