Another year it might be fun to make a badge for the Day, so those who meet before getting to Twyford know each other.

Please would someone tell me the size of the FF club badge.

I don't know what happened to my Famous Five badge. Lost over the years unfortunately. :(

There's a photo at the bottom of this page I created with the badge you got in the 1970's - not sure if it changed or not
