| Hi All
Adrian and I are looking at the next exhibition and talks.
The format will be similar to lhis year's except the Saturday evening will be at Sissinghurst Castle ( there will be a tour around the castle) we will have the evening meal there. As the castle was built in Napoleonic times we will get Ian Knight to come up and talk about the Prince Imperial. Sunday am will be at the Raja Restaurant, as this year, with possible talks on the Royal Artillery and the Zulu War and the Medical treatment of soldiers during the war.
The cost will be the actual costs of the two main meals and other unavoidable costs. Participants will be responsible for their own overnight costs. Once again the use of my place as a camping site is available.
Obviously the more people who attend will drive the price down ie rather than running around in cars we could hire a coach and make the experience more enjoyable.
Can I have your thoughts please - this has also been released to the members of the Anglo Zulu War Historical Society.
Regards
David |

| Hi Dave. Going by the last one. It's a must for 2012. What sort of numbers are we looking at to make it worthwhile. Ian Knight talk on the Prince Imperial again is a must. I would be very interested in attending. But for me camping is out the question I saw the state of Admin & Old H. They kind of looked grey. |

| Hi Dave
As before there is a good selection of B & B's and Hotels in the locality.
There will also be the option of camping at my place - the only stipulation will be to make sure the beds fit into the tent!!

| Hi David -
Bit confused at this event from the Anglo Zulu War Society -
A special two day weekend event is planned for 24th-25th March 2012 at The BLACK HORSE public house PLUCKLEY Kent. Pluckley is where the 24th Regiment began as the Dering Militia, it is also famous for being the most haunted village in Kent. The event, "GHOSTS OF THE ZULU WAR" will feature a large static exhibition , Victorian soldiers in living history displays ,films, artifacts and trade stands. Saturday evening there will be a ticketed dinner with a talk by author IAN KNIGHT . Details are to be finalized soon. Exhibition is free to all , dinner tickets approx. £45 each .Early booking is recommended tickets available early January 2012.
and to the event discussed here -
The format will be similar to lhis year's except the Saturday evening will be at Sissinghurst Castle ( there will be a tour around the castle) we will have the evening meal there. As the castle was built in Napoleonic times we will get Ian Knight to come up and talk about the Prince Imperial. Sunday am will be at the Raja Restaurant, as this year, with possible talks on the Royal Artillery and the Zulu War and the Medical treatment of soldiers during the war.
Are these two seperate events, or is the latter an update to the one mentioned on the AZWS site?
Many thanks.

| Hi All
The event at Pluckley in March is being supported by Adrian, Ian and myself.
The other event is our own one similar to the one held this last summer.
Hope this helps.

| From the AZWHS
"With the next event already arranged at Brecon for the coming weekend 16th-17th June, we have decided that the next Zulu weekend in Kent will be held next year. This will coincide with the largest ever display of items and treasures from the Zulu War which will be displayed at Tenterden Museum for the summer of 2013, starting at Easter. The full ‘weekend programme’ will be published towards the end of this year and members will be notified in good time. The weekend will include a gala dinner at Sissinghurst Castle."
