It is with great regret that the Club has to inform you of the passing of two former Wasps.

Clive Robinson looked after the club records and was given the unenviable task of sorting out the archives when we left Sudbury about two decades ago. He was a very keen rugby man and cricketer. Clive and his wife, Ann, were part of the merry band that followed Wasps extensively throughout the UK and Europe. The funeral arrangements are:
Family flowers only and donations (to be advised).

Friday 9th November, 15:45
Easthampstead Park Cemetery and Crematorium
South Road
Nine Mile Ride
Wokingham, RG40 3DW

Followed by drinks and refreshment at:
Wokingham Cricket Club, Sadlers End, Sindlesham, Wokingham, RG41 5AW.

John Blewitt passed away in Sydney after a long illness. John played flank for the firsts from '66 to'68 after coming down from Manchester Uni before emigrating to Aus where he became a very successful financial retirement planner. Some of you may remember John -
a great player and a real character.

Also, not so bad news hopefully, Robin De Morgan is trying to locate
another olde Wasp, Noel Ferrand. Noel captained the A XV from 1965 to
1967 and was last heard of working in Oman and was Chairman of Muscat
RFC and the Gulf Region. Any information would be much appreciated.
