Out and About in May 2010?
Calling any OR’s – of all ages - travelling around the Netherlands in the early May holiday period. Near Almelo in the east on Monday 3rd May some 200 Dutch townsfolk, their children and the local band will gather in Zenderen wood at 8pm to commemorate Old Russellian Flying Officer Gerald Hood. It is a moving ceremony of children’s floral tributes, wreath laying, and Elgar’s music. If your travels can take you this way, you will be very welcome indeed.
