I'm always surprised how few Natal Guides medals there are. Perhaps the troops in Natal knew where they needed to go but had problems getting there?

From a geographical point of view, Natal was, and indeed is huge!

Well, this would have to be Sydney John Athersuch would'nt it? born on the 6th of February 1869, moreover, a South African connection too, but this is where I would need to be at the TNA and I am not,
David, it's over to you!

Munroe,
My friend in the Colony of Natal, Mr Hendey, is going to be very cross with you, only the other day he said that I have spend time to sort out my badge collection and "get it into good order" but, everytime you come on here, I get stuffed!

David, I was not suggesting that you are the same age as Sir David Frost, or indeed, are similar to him in any way!
