When Jim Holmes & John Bell mooted the idea of an impromptu ex traffic reunion they had no idea how many would respond but thought it would be a deemed a success if maybe 10-12 former colleagues turned up for a coffee and a chat at the Tea Barn at Pity Me - something to build on.
Amazingly, 36 former colleagues walked through the doors and it was wonderful to renew old friendships and chew over old times.
All agreed it was something they should continue with so the next meet will be on Wednesday, 10th May at the Spectrum Leisure Centre,Hunwick Lane, Willington DL15 0JA, where there will be exclusive use of a room with refreshments being available, thanks to Ian Hirst.
Put this date in your diary and bring along any memorabilia (photos etc) to share.'
