Luncheon club

October meeting

The Ladies Lifeboat Luncheon Club met in October at the North Star in Flamborough for the group’s first official meeting after the summer break, with 45 members in attendance.

The speaker was Colonel Andrew Budd who gave an interesting talk on his active and extraordinary life in the army between 1975 and 2012.

He followed in the steps of his father, from whom he gained a sense of service and adventure, and began his career at Sandhurst Officer Training College at 18.

His first commission was with the Royal Artillery, where he spent three years on the border with the Soviet Union between West and East Germany.

His affable and amusing recounting of the many incidents that he and his colleagues experienced belies the fact that his was a distinguished career.

He travelled all over the world spending time in Northern Ireland, and was later deployed to the Operations Division of HQ BAOR in Germany.

After five years in Germany he returned to Aldershot and was appointed ‘aide de camp’ to General Hillier in Afghanistan as chief of operations.

Colonel Budd spent the last 10 years of his career working for NATO in part in the nuclear operation cell. He now lives in Bridlington and volunteers for the RNLI.

The meeting closed with a vote of thanks to Colonel Budd from the chair, Anne Saunders.
