It is with so much sadness I report that Captain John Barrie (Barrie) Dickinson CBE, RFA(Retd), member 0043, Crossed the Bar on Thursday 22 August 2019 aged 82.
Provisionally Barrie's Funeral will take place on Thursday 12th September 2019 at St Laurence's Church, Upwey (HERE for their Website and HERE for a map). There will be a private cremation later. Old shipmates and colleagues will be very welcome to attend and also to join the family for refreshments afterwards. This is very provisional and I will Sitrep the page as details become clear.
The funeral arrangements are being made by Matthew Lucas, Funeral Directors in Dorchester (HERE for their website and HERE for a Map)
On behalf of the RFA Association I offer our sincere condolences to widow Pam and children Roderick and Sarah

The new property remains within the secure area of the Dockyard, which is a pain but on the bright side it is very inexpensive.

The RFA Reunion 2019 will be held at the Radison Blu Hotel Durham on 11th May 2019 and I would suggest that you book your room in the Radison Blu soon as I am told they are filling up. I booked today (23 Oct) and I was quoted £145 for a double occupancy room for 1 night and £9 parking for 24 Hours.
The Radison Blu Durham.
Have as shufti HERE for their website with all their contact details and also details about the rooms other facilities etc and HERE for a map which does show the location of the Radison Blu and other hotels close by.
Durham Taxis have fare calculator (have a shufti HERE) and according to this the fare from Durham Railway station to the Radison Blu should be about £3.60 (don't quote me)
As more details become available regarding the Reunion and of course the AGM I will post it to this page.
