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..................................................................................................................................
That there is why the Yanks Russians and Chinese do it the way they do. They know what would happen if they let themselves get in a weak position. "You will sign your nations interests away.
"There is the pen. The oil/land/fishing rights/air space/trade agreements are OURS".
Don't have to be bayonets and bullets....at first. Ask Mexico how much of the mighty Colorado River makes it across the Mexican US border to its estuary in the Sea of Cortez. You could not fill a bath with it. The Yanks nick the lot. From the border to the beach no green. Dead.
Mexico is getting fooked because it is construed as being "weak"....and I think they have a bigger Army than us.

In an all out scrap we would probably have a hard time with the bottom half of that list.
mind you, a few of those countries with big numbers, I wonder how many would feck off as soon as it started.
I have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.

Good point.... but we need a bigger Army. When you are out numbered five to one they do not have to be good parade ground soldiers. That was always the problem on The Khyber....and at Isandlwana and Khartoum. All they got to do is show up... look through the sights with both eyes open and pull a trigger, and overwhelm your defences with numbers. All the whizzbang shit we got now only goes so far. Then its down to Tommy Atkins again.
