Having taken into account the current COVID restrictions that currently apply in the different parts of the UK, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 reunion.
The Chairman Nick Butler will be heading up the Fan at 0930 hrs on Saturday the 15th May and he will lay a BAFC wreath on behalf of the Club at the summit.
He will also toast The Fallen.
If other members wish to make their own pilgrimage up the Fan at their own risk please follow the relevant COVID restrictions that will be in place.
As a Club we are not able to accept liability for members safety and well being over the weekend of 14/15 May. Our Clubs insurance that normally covers Fandance will not operate this year.
Update to follow reference Aldershot 10 Miler on the 20th November 2021.
...........................................................................................................................................................The 10 Miler will be held on w/e Saturday 23rd November 2024..................................................................................................................................
Ha!That's f.ck all!3 Para would've snatched a dangling rope from a passing Herc,and pulled themselves in wearing main,reserve,and container weighing at least 3 times their own body weight!
They gave you a reserve? lucky barsted. we were happy if we got a main.
I have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.
We only carried it for extra weight to exercise the arms when we shinned up the rope,then we'd ditch it,and sometimes the main if it was in the way of carrying extra bacon and eggs,and then get the plane to fly low over wheat fields to give a softer landing when we hurled ourselves out,head first to avoid any damage to containers!
Not many windows left in Wigan Pat, I went through one or two when i was a Cop on a few Saturday nights
None at the owd Wigan Casino Ron, but who needs windas when thaz showin off thee flips n back drops on the dance floor! "I,m getting my kicks out on the floor, Hey, Hey, Hey!"
Was a cop in Wigan when the Casino was in full flow. Never any trouble from the kids inside, they just danced themselves to a standstill. Not sure why the f**k they shut it down, claims about drugs but the cops never came across many stoned dancers, and if they were they were no trouble. People came from all over the UK to Wigan casino every Saturday night
I had mates used to go up there. Quite a few Lancashire lasses living in my town...having bin "recruited" at the Casino. Manchester birds as well. Just found out on FB that one of me mates who met a stunning looking Geordie bird from Newcastle up there.... hung himself after she went back to the Wilds of The North. Fookin' idiot. He should have had a word with Dave...
