All Bar the Shouting

3 April 2024

It is now over a year since the passing of Rob Thompson who was well known to many members not just though his articles, but also his appearances at branch meetings and on the WFA's YouTube channel. 

With the blessing of Rob's wife, we have commissioned a special 'one off' magazine which is available below. This publication - which runs to 68 pages - highlights some aspects of Rob's prodigious output, mainly around the subject of 'logistics'. 

The 'All Bar the Shouting' magazine can be read on screen or downloaded via the button below. We do hope you enjoy reading this.
