London and Greater London Branch have agreed to looking into running a trip up the Thames from Westminster to Richmond on the Saturday 5th Sept. and will be getting prices for this. It will be our contribution to the celebrations for the 20th year of the association.
As there will be a lot of MN people in London that day, having come there for the Merchant Navy Day Service at Trinity Gardens on Sunday the 6th, the trip will be open to the other branches and any national members who are in London and would like to come. They are trying to arrange a bar and snacks on board as well.
The price is still to be arranged and if we get enough response, it may be we can have the boat just for MNA, the publicity could be good as well. If you can put feelers out for me at the meeting on Saturday I would be grateful.
