Oh dear, not yet another meeting of the " Brownies " You should all thank your lucky stars you got taken over ( Yes it was a takover not a merger) and that your seniority in Britannia as it was then slotted in according to when you joined Orion.

Britannia should have been ashamed about the way the ground staff were treated.

Orion reunion
Hi All,

Would love to make the reunion but as Christine & I now live in (retired to) North Cyprus, regret we will be unable. Please give our love & best wishes to all. I have been put out to pasture now since turning the dreaded 65 eight years ago. All the best for the event.

Simon Frangoulis
Hi,

I didn't work for Orion but I noticed that someone was asking about Simon Frangoulis. I flew with him at TBG and then at Qatar Airways - he was only there for a short while - that was 1996. No idea of his whereabouts since then I'm afraid.

Cheers

HR
