All too young anyway . The photo was taken in Beacon Hill Park, Victoria, British Columbia. Our province's name was thought up by Queen Victoria. If she had been in Balmoral at the time, it may well have been called British Caledonia. By the way, <strong>Steve Myers /</strong> <strong>Nick Knight</strong> /  <strong>Micky Tyndall.</strong> who played with BCAL in 1988 here, will be making a reprise tour as veterans for our 12th VISAS tournament during the first week of August.

<p><strong>Donna and Harry Davis in Brighton</strong>. <br /> <strong>Harry Davis</strong> was such a sweet man.<br /> He was the father of <strong>Greg Davis</strong> who worked at Gatwick. My friend <strong>Donna</strong> and I stayed at Harrys house with him and his sweet wife when we traveled to London to see the team we had chaperoned the year before. Yes, I arranged the BCAL Rugby tour and my friend <strong>Donna</strong> (non BCAL) and I (chaperoned) about 20 players and <strong>Harry Davis,</strong> the manager of the team. They were like a band of brothers and adopted Donna and I and even gave us our own team rugby shirts. It was a lot of fun and they were all such wonderful guys but I cant remember the names of many of them.<br /><br />photo and copyright <strong>Cathy H. Mounce</strong></p>

<p><strong>My Property in Panama</strong> <br />The (Scottish) twice removed is -- born in Scotstoun, near Glasgow (father born in Perth, mother, sad to say was English, but a good lady anyway). Moved from Scotstoun when I was 2 years old to England. Moved to Thurso, Caithness when I was 12, my father working at ARTE as manager, on the nuclear mock-up submarine for the Navy and Rolls-Royce. During the next 10 years or so moved back to England, back up to Thurso, married a Navy man and moved all over the world finally settling north of Houston, Texas in The Woodlands for 20+ years (where I worked for BCal and then BA). After medical problems (my husband was mowed down by a renegade dump truck and a couple of years later I was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer), we decided we were tired of the stress and materialistic US way of life and came, saw, loved and bought property in Panama where we have been living for the last 4 years. Wonderful country, wonderful people, wonderful weather (hate to brag but today is sunny and around 75 degrees F. Temperatures here rarely get higher than 80 degrees F and sometimes in the (winter) drop down to 60 degrees at night -- great sleeping weather with the windows wide open. We could never have afforded to take early retirement (especially with the house we built) and live in the UK or US so thank goodness for Panama and where else can you have year round mild weather with beautiful views. If you look at a map of Panama, to the west, near the Costa Rican border, you will see the town of David and further north the town of Boquete, we are in the middle in Potrerillos Arriba. The map will no doubt show Volcan Baru, the highest point in Panama -- we live in the foothills of Volcan Baru and have beautiful views all around our house.<br /><br />Photo and (<strong>Story) from Marion (Clamp)</strong></p>
