Informal Traffic Reunion – TONIGHT (Wed 9th Aug)

Following on from the two successful reunion events earlier in the year we are now going for an evening meet at 6.30pm, Wednesday 9^th August and hopefully capture the ex colleagues who were unable to attend in the past.
It's going to be at the same venue as the last time, the Spectrum Leisure Centre, Willington (thanks to Ian Hirst for making the place available for us.)
Can I ask that you spread the word to any ex colleagues you are in touch with so we can renew friendships and have a good chinwag about times past. 

Look forward to seeing you there - hope you can make it.
Regards
Jim
