Lieutenant John Chard: What's our strength? Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead: Seven officers including surgeon, commissaries and so on; Adendorff now I suppose; wounded and sick 36, fit for duty 97 and about 40 native levies. Not much of an army for you.

Old Historian 2: "The Making of Zulu" is about 30 minutes long I believe. Those of you who have seen it will know what a fascinating piece of film it is.
Dave: I've just checked, there is hardly any accommodation still available in Brecon for that weekend. If you are still keen on coming, I would suggest you try the Brecon Tourist Information Centre - 01874 622485 - they may be able to find the odd vacancy or two. Good luck
Hope to see some of you on the Sunday. Please seek me out and make yourself known.
Bill

Bill, is this the only AZW weekend going to be held at Brecon this year, or are there other events planned later on?

Hi spelk
It will be the only one in Brecon this year. We normally aim for one every two years, and we did a "big one" last year (2012). This one was added in due to the John Williams VC headstone rededication and Dr Jay Pinto's willingness to show the "making of Zulu" film. We will probably do something in the Spring of 2014 before WW1 takes over the Media. We try and avoid January, as Brecon is normally under snow !!!
Anything special you'd like us to focus on ?
Bill

Ah no, I'm still kicking myself for missing out on last years event, that sounded absolutely fantastic. I can't really make this April's one neither... but I hope to make one!
