Hi Bryon,

Sorry this is a bit late, but time went by and I have only just remembered that I had forgotten to send an email thanking you for the birthday Voucher.

Not sure what I am going to buy just yet, but I will get something nice.

Anyway, thanks again. These birthdays only come around now and again so I hope I'm around for a couple more at least.

All the best,

Andy Gill

Many thanks for the birthday card and voucher on the occasion of my 80th birthday which is much appreciated. I look forward to the Christmas lunch to meet up once again with all those hard working colleagues who kept me engaged in a nice warm office nearly all my service whilst they got on with the job for which we were paid.

Do please pass on my thanks to the committee without which, as we all know, NARPO could not exist.

Best wishes to all
Regards

As you would be aware I am back at home following over four weeks at Morriston Hospital following a nasty fall. The medical staff have repaired my fractured hip which i trust will get me active again. I would wish to express my heart felt gratitude for the most appreciated greetings for a full recovery from NARPO and indeed the gift vouchers.

When convenient please convey my thanks to all concerned.

  Hello Bryon,
I am not out of the wood yet and the medics have indicated that it will be about June before full recovery (hopefully) but I feel that I am moving fast in the right direction and can recall most of what I lost when in the land of nod during my time in hospital. That brings me to the gift of £20 received from you and I just cannot recall whether I acknowledged this gift, generous indeed, and I would be grateful if you will pass on my thanks to the Branch.

  Hello Phil

Seeing my name on the sick list of the current branch newsletter reminded me that having received a get well card and vouchers I hadn’t responded to say thank you very much. It was a bit of knock to be suddenly hospitalised. Job done and the prognosis is good and I’m gradually getting back to normal. Thanks again and be assured the vouchers will be put good use.

All the best

  Bryon,
Thank you for your kind words, and particulary the help that Narpo have given me in getting word to those I know Dad would want informed. I never realy understood why he didn't join Narpo as without exception every conversation we had ended up talking about his Borough days!

Although he never shouted it from the roof tops he was immensly proud of his service particularly his time as a Borough constable (he made sure that was written on my birth certificate!)
Thanks again on behalf of the family

Dear Phil,
As you are aware I am now home and recuperating after a burst appendix led to an unexpected stay for me at Morriston Hospital. It was very thoughtful of Swansea NARPO to send me a get well card which showed a view similar to one of my favourite local walks. Thank you also for the enclosed vouchers which will be put to good use.

Best Wishes,

Dear Bryon,

Many thanks for your card and gift voucher to mark my special birthday. It is always pleasing to know that one is not forgotten by my former colleagues in Swansea Borough.

I do keep in touch and visit the NARPO website on a regular basis and I must congratulate all concerned on the in depth coverage of events and personnel, but sadly so many have passed away.

On a more positive note, I was delighted to receive your card and may I wish you and your family and all members of the Branch good health and prosperity for the future'

Best regards,

  Will you please convey my sincere thanks to your Committee for the generous voucher which accompanied the Narpo Birthday card to celebrate my 70years on this planet. I know I am not an active member but I am frequently on the website which I find most informative. I regularly bump into old colleagues in Tescos, Fforestfach where we pass the time of day and do a bit of reminiscing.

Thanks once again

  Hi Phil,
Would you please convey my thanks to all at Swansea Narpo for my recent birthday card and voucher. I was trying to forget about birthdays now and 'tread water' for a while, however the voucher was most welcome and unexpected and it does mean that I don't have to play my guitar in Oxford Street this week !!!!

Many thanks again

Hello Jeff !

Many thanks for your recent E Mail - I have read the stories that you have recorded and I trust that other NARPO members will have a laugh when they also see fit to read. I can assure members that I have not strayed from the truth and that the incidents did really happen in those so happy years when police work was so much more in touch with the general public. (How very true Hubert!)

Finally I would like to say how much we appreciate your work in sorting out news matters on the web - Well done.
I trust that your holidays were enjoyable despite the appalling weather.

Regards - Hubert (90 then 2110.}

Thanks Hubert - Jeff
