Don't know who started this, but
each year we try to have a 'posh' do. The idea is to get all dressed up in
posh frocks or fancy dress and have a good meal, swap stories and have some entertainment somewhere
private, just for us!
Along with the posh bun fight
usually goes an awards ceremony in recognition of anyone who has done
anything 'outstanding' during the year and then, various games for those so
inclined.
Here are two examples:-

The Regimental Picnic
2002
This was held at New
Buckenham castle just outside Norwich. We all brought food & drink and
camped overnight. The ruins of the castle are supposedly haunted which
caused much amusement in the dark. Particularly as there were no
lights on the way to the portaloos and Steve Conneely from Kemps Men
decided to put a sheet over his head and run around the top of the
castle. This was a very dangerous thing to do as we discovered in the
morning. |

The
Regimental Banquet 2006
This was at a
youth hostel in Shereford near Fakenham. It seemed to be miles from
anywhere in the outback of Norfolk and several of us got quite lost
trying to find it. However we all got there in the end and had a
great time as usual. One polypin of beer was provided so we
brought the rest ourselves. An excellent meal was cooked for us by
some staff and students at the hostel. After the usual presentations
there were the games and, guess what, dancing. Fortunately there were
bedrooms and dormitories at the hostel so nobody had to drive home. |
