ROYAL NEW ZEALAND ARTILLERY
ANNUAL GUNNER DINNER

6 members of the Australian Artillery Association attended the Royal New Zealand Artillery Association Annual Gunner Dinner held on 12 November 2011 at the Bealey Hotel in Christchurch. The event itself was a wonderful occasion and it was great to catch up with old friends whom we met at past dinners.

To the right is link to a dedicated Photo Album containing in excess of 900 photos of our trip including the pre dinner drinks day, the Gunner Dinner and thereafter our journeys from coast to coast and north of Christchurch. The city of Christchurch is all but destroyed as is depicted in many of our photographs however the spirit of the locals is strong and lives on.
