A word from the Ed<br />

Ways to find us<br />

Somebody please surgically<br />

remove this PC from my line of<br />

sight. I’ve had enough!! Only<br />

joking. It has been a long few<br />

weeks though, finally finishing<br />

off the Remembrance 100 Special<br />

Edition and then moving straight<br />

on to this one. Where does it<br />

end?!!<br />

Quite a mix of stuff in this edition<br />

with our centre spread belonging<br />

to the BGT finalists ‘D-Day<br />

Darlings’. We have lots of shorter<br />

stories but for me, the big news is<br />

found on the Tommy Atkins page<br />

where we go into partnership with<br />

Dr David Muss to produce the<br />

Veterans Online Rewind <strong>The</strong>rapy<br />

System, or VORTS for short. We<br />

are truly hoping that this system<br />

could go a long way to reducing<br />

suicides amongst veterans.<br />

Talking of Veterans suicides, it<br />

was good to see the British press<br />

getting behind us over the past<br />

weekend. <strong>The</strong> story was initiated<br />

by the Sunday <strong>Times</strong> who had a<br />

little assistance from a certain<br />

well known Veterans magazine<br />

and then on to the rest of the<br />

newspaper world. We have it on<br />

good authority that we will be in<br />

the Sunday <strong>Times</strong> this week<br />

explaining how we help veterans<br />

in the various ways were we dip<br />

our pinkies.<br />

It was also nice to have a bit of a<br />

round up of the BTCC for 2018<br />

where we have been following<br />

our Patron, Matt and team mate<br />

Dan Cammish. Team Dynamics,<br />

although entered a tough season<br />

with a brand new car certainly<br />

made their mark. Roll on next<br />

year, eh.<br />

Well, that’s it for <strong>No</strong>vember. I<br />

hope you all have a great<br />

Remembrance period what ever<br />

you are doing and we look<br />

forward to our Christmas edition<br />

with a bit of fun and games. See<br />

you all next month. Pabs x<br />
