We would like to share with you brief details of an event planned
for next year by the Friends of St. Lawrence Church.

Nigel Afford has kindly offered to share experiences of his time
served with The King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery during the 1970s.

The Troop's primary role is to conduct ceremonial operations
such as firing gun salutes at state occasions.

More information will be published in February. 
In the meantime, please make a note of the date in your diaries.
