CHARITABLE ADVERTISING on Web Site There are many worthwhile charitable causes in existence, but we can only accept sponsorship or fundraising efforts on Fusilier Association websites, that specifically support approved Fusilier charities. This essentially means that it is acceptable to use these pages to seek sponsorship for The Fusiliers Aid Society (which includes Fallen Fusiliers), and The Fusilier Memorial fund only. We now have our own dedicated justgiving site (http://www.justgiving.com/fusiliersaidsociety), which you can use to help raise money for your cause. If you let RHQ (Asst Regt Sec) know the specific cause you are raising money for, it will be directed to the correct fund. Messages soliciting sponsorship for causes or charities other than the Fusilier ones mentioned above should not be placed on the message board and may be removed by the Webmaster.

Over the lifetime of the LF Message Board, we have been regaled with many stories of the various mishaps and adventures of LF personnel over the years. Some sad and thought provoking, but mostly funny and more so for being totally true!
Springing to mind, but not listed in any particular order, and starting with BG, the tales of unusual pets, eventful patrols that didn't workout as expected, the strange effects of rum on the innocent soul.....their were many others. Thunderboxes featured often, along with tales of retribution being administered for infidelity at home and one for ' trying it on '. Weeton and the infamous burning down of one of the spider blocks. The subsequent insurance claims for never before seen Saville Row Suits. The raid on the NAAFI and the fruitless search for the culprits.... but perhaps we know who? The drainage of the camp pond and the unexpected discoveries. Strange goings on in the Camp Cinema. Again many more have been told. Hong Kong and bringing home to Gun Club of a sumo wrestler and midget. Being politely but very firmly asked to leave Hong Kong's finest Hotel. The Starlight Hotel roof top bar in Singapore and the unexpected handful....the tales just go on.
