Just like to thank everyone who has helped me in tracing Davie Oswald, your assistance was appreciated.

Now back from Iraq and preparing to move down to Sandhurst in the next couple of days. I finallly got promotion to Cpl which I pick up on the 26 May so if anybody knows me drop me a wee email and say hi.

Just to say good luck be safe to my hubby Iain Googs McGovern who left Germany today for another tour of Iraq. I hope 4Scots keep him safe just as much as the Royals did love Tracey, Josh, Abbie xx

Brian Sinclair AKA Sinky65 as Sgt Major Fraser used to say, A Coy-2 Pltn 86-91, great to see some familiar names. Hello to Royals old and new.

Looking through the guestbook I can put a few faces to the names going back to Osnabruck. I joined A Coy Jan 68 then went to the Recce a few months later and back to A Coy in Cyprus for a few more months then went to Sigs attached to B Coy until demob in 77. WELL DONE THE ROYALS ON THEIR PRESENT TOUR. If anyone remembers me feel free to drop a line. UP THE ROYALS

Mark (Wooley) noticed you were looking for Bert. Did you find him. Would be good to hear from him. Hegs

Re SID Mc Ivor. Sid I noticed in the journal you are now involved in The Regimental Association Pipe Band. Feel free to drop me a line as it would be good to catch up. Mark.

Great site, lots of names from the past.
Working out in Nigeria and do not see many Royals out here! A message for George Dickson, I had my own wee moment for Lawrence on the 17th even though I was 5000 miles away. UP THE ROYALS.

Just to ask if anyone knows the whereabouts of Davie Oswald who served with The Royal Scots from 1975 onward. I lost touch when I transferred to QRIH while we were in Oxford Bks Munster in April 1978.

Hey guys back from France got 'inapte definitif' from the Legion (got binned). Just checked my emails and found a load of them from crackpots claiming they have millions and I am entitled to it etc etc. Just thought I would warn everyone to be on their guard with this just in case they try and extort money from anyone. I have passed emails to police will try and get them onto here so all can peruse at leisure and know what to look out for.

To Derek and Sid. Have replied to your e-mails but not sure if they have gone through. Please check. Geordie, have got photos now and will send them asap.

All the best
Mark

I will be traveling up to Edinburgh to welcome 1SCOTS home from Iraq so hope to meet up with some old and young Royals whilst in Edinburgh for a few wee drams so let me know where you will be on Princes Street 9 June.

Just to let you know I was at Twickenham Saturday to see the Army Vs Navy Rugby Final pleased to say Army won 22 to 11 and best player was Pte.Apolosi Satala, 1st Battalion The Royal Regiment of Scotland.

The May Issue of The Thistle has been added to the website. Click on Regimental Journals.

Tom and Jean Hindle would like to thank the Committee for a brilliant night at the Reunion; as always the Buffet was superb and it was wonderful to meet up with so many old friends.
A very big thanks to all who contributed to our Granddaughter's World Challenge Trip to Tanzania in 2009. On the night we raised £135. We would especially like to thank all our (Royal Scot) friends who have sent Chantelle a Cheque, so far she has raised £1200 of the £3300 needed; not bad for a 14 year old. A very big thank you from the Hindles.

Hi to all again,
Just thought I would thank Rose Gallagher and her Family for kindly taking up my offer of a memorial gift for her great uncle Hugh McVicar's Memorial(see Rose's entry earlier). It is with great pleasure to be able to gift the family with a glass engraving of their choosing.
May I also commend Bill on The Hill and his team for this magnificent site which enabled me to offer this memorial gift to Rose and her Family.
