Weekly Meeting (Hallmark) - Trafalgar Night
Wed, Feb 19th 2014 at 12:00 am - 12:00 am
First Sea Lord John R tells a salty tale ....
Trafalgar Night with the Gloucester Severn Crew!
We were Royally entertained by First Sea Lord John Roderick, with guest appearances of Napoleon Bonaparte, Admiral Lord Nelson and a member from below decks, Gunner Ronnie Jones.
The meal grace was delivered by Bosun Barrett, and the Royal Toast by First Officer Barnes.
The epic battle of Trafalgar was then related to the audience, supplemented by images and video clips, with live commentary from the Emperor Bonaparte and Admiral Lord Nelson.
A fantastic informative and fun evening - well done John R
