Hats Off to our Chairperson Sarbaraj Rai 6067 and his executive team (Tanka, Jit, Tak, Hom, Surya, Tika, Nem, Sur) and all the other unsung heroes who worked tirelessly behind the scene in the planning and ex*****on of our 40th Anniversary.

What a day to remember, thank you to the ET and to all who have made an effort to attend and share the moment. For the likes of Surendra numberi from Canada (Calgary), Gopal from Nepal (Chitwan) and those who travelled from Scotland, Wales, Birmingham, North Yorkshire and Leicester. It wouldn’t have been a ‘grand bhela’ without the hard work put in by the ET and the attendance by all numbries and their families. It was good to see so many new faces for numberi bhela who we hadn’t seen since we parted from the Malaya Lines after our training had ended and also sad so see so many regulars missing the bhela due to personal circumstances. I see the group grow slowly but steadily, and I hope, the rest of the numberi will follow suit.

I was also sad to see the growing list of our departed numberis who will miss them dearly.

I am already looking forward to next year’s bhela and we shouldn’t have any problem attending it as the majority of us are finally retired for the second time.

Jai Intake 1983.
