5 of 7 June 2024 The 1805 Dispatches #24.03 THE TREGIDGOs RECOGNISED FOR CORNWALLIS WORK SHIP’S WORD WHEEL Take a ten-minute break and find as many words as possible, using the letters in the wheel. Each must use the hub letter and at least 3 others, used only once. No plurals (if only made by adding an ‘s’ or ‘es’), no foreign words not in common usage in English, nor proper nouns. There is at least one nine-letter word to be found. 20 = Average; 30 = Good; 40 = Amazing! Answers on last page Remember that there is a whole treasure trove here https://www.facebook.com/ The1805Club/ Here is a reminder from your Editor that among its many other virtues, The 1805 Dispatches newsletter exists in order to give Club members an opportunity to tell everyone else their news. We are a Club of people with interest in eighteenth-century naval history, but we are more than that, as experienced by anyone who has been able to attend any of our events. With such like-minded people real friendships can often develop. Look now at the Events Diary on page 6, to avoid missing a chance to meet up. Please tell us about the things you enjoy, particularly if they involve the Club or similar activities. Your Editor has heard the rumour that some Club members, who were unable to attend the 2023 Trafalgar Night Dinner, wished they had been able to see the unpublished AB&OS cartoon that was given as a framed print to our host, the Commander of HMS NELSON WARDROOM. Accepting an opportunity for a bit of self-promotion (which he generally seeks to hide under a veil of modesty) he is happy to show it off here. As a Club we are delighted that, in recognition of all the work he did for us during the Cornwallis Memorial Decade, culminating in the installation of the Cornwallis memorial in HM Naval Base, Portsmouth, our prominent member Stephen Tregidgo and his wife Jan were invited to attend the King’s Garden Party at Buckingham Palace on 21 May 2024.
