Mine are the best as you would expect Tony has said that his will be in the post Monday, Rene has said his are ready to go too but has had a few problems. I have heard nothing at all from Don or Mike and Reuven. Can you let me know if you are still interested in being part of the tribute or have folded. Look forward to hearing from you all Cheers Keith On Thursday, 28 May 2015, 16:20, vfb-mail@googlegroups.com vfb-mail@googlegroups.com wrote: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_source=digestutm_medium=email#%21forum/vfb-mail/topics Google Groups https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_source=digestutm_medium=email/#%21overview https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_source=digestutm_medium=email/#%21overview Topic digest View all topics https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_source=digestutm_medium=email#%21forum/vfb-mail/topics * Birdie fly plate? https://uk-mg42.mail.yahoo.com/neo/launch?.partner=bt-1.rand=dm9iipvh433mn#group_thread_0 - 14 Updates * Birdie Plate or Plaque https://uk-mg42.mail.yahoo.com/neo/launch?.partner=bt-1.rand=dm9iipvh433mn#group_thread_1 - 1 Update * [Shaw Suspected Junk Email] [VFB] Post Script - Birdie plate https://uk-mg42.mail.yahoo.com/neo/launch?.partner=bt-1.rand=dm9iipvh433mn#group_thread_2 - 2 Updates Birdie fly plate? http://groups.google.com/group/vfb-mail/t/12a1be855a5078b5?utm_source=digestutm_medium=email KP kpt...@btinternet.com: May 27 12:00PM -0700 Hi all, I know I am just lurking these days but this got me out of my hole. This is a great idea. And as several folk have already said presents one problem. Getting it to Mrs Burgess a. Unbroken and b. So she doesn't have a customs bill. So... how about I meister it here in the UK and frame it. I will not deliver it but get it delivered by courier insured. I don't like to do the bereaved bit. My nuts are too small! Just need numbers of intended and a way of covering costs not that they would be huge. I have done some framing flies and take various levels of care but most turn out ok!! This one would receive the utmost attention to detail. I would go with a square or oblong frame not round. Positioning is easier. As for the IOFF well I don't have a list of members but am fairly sure Birdie was not a member. So let me have your thoughts but more importantly if you are in don't hang around because I think we need to get it done quickly so she understands the significance of it all to those that corresponded with the man. Over to you folks Keith On Monday, 25 May 2015 16:08:23 UTC+1, Don Ordes wrote: KP kpt...@btinternet.com: May 27 12:03PM -0700 Don we have the power to make him an honorary member! If we could get a certificate then it would make a great frame background and we could doctor it so his name appeared in the cert right?

As for the IOFF well I don't have a list of members but am fairly sure Birdie was not a member. No he wasn't. And the more I have thought about it, I don't feel including the list of IOFF members is such a good idea, even making Brian an honorary member. Why? Because it was all done in jest and was written quite humorously. I don't think a person would be able to see any humor in it, having just lost her husband to a long and bitter struggle with cancer. However, the fly plate from his closest friends could be very meaningful. Just my own tuppence worth. Allan Neville Gosling nev.gosl...@shaw.ca: May 27 12:41PM -0700 Hi KP: That would solve the major logistical problem since you are located in the UK and I know you from way back when. I have no problem with a certificate or whatever from the IOFF to Birdie as recognition. The other alternative is to include a photo lab copy of the photo of Birdie his daughter. The photo is a little dark but could be made slightly lighter and more vibrant with Adobe Lightroom or a similar app. The photo lab could probably do this. Nev Neville Gosling nev.gosl...@shaw.ca: May 27 12:53PM -0700 Attn Mike Bliss What year did the IOFF thing take place? Just curious…..Nev KP kpt...@btinternet.com: May 27 12:59PM -0700 Thinking about it Al you may well be right on the certificate. So I would say forget that idea. Nev the photo is a good shout. If you wish you can email it and I will have a play with Picassa and use it as a focal point in the centre. Are we
