Hi everyboby, its Sarah again. just want to thank everone who put this tour together, it was the best 12 days of my life, the ex PoWs are so great, they are the best people, and the people i met there from W.A were fantastic aswel, Like…Laura, Deborah, Erin, Kate, Todd, Grayden, Nathan and so many more, but they are a couple of people i met and became friends with, its a pitty we didnt have longer to spend more time with them. The airport was the worst, so emotional… i miss everyone that was there. I would like to thank Leonie once again, and also Mr Maher, thanks guys xoxo

The tour was the most amazing thing i have ever experienced in my life. Thank you to everyone who made it possible and i hope ill be able to go on the tour again one day.

My father, Paul Grader, died only recently. He did not tell us children much about his time at the Burma Railroad, but reading the website I came across so many familiar names. Now I understand what so many POWs have gone through, only partyly as one can never understand fully !

The tour was an unforgettable experience. I am forever grateful to Neil, Owen, Bill and Ernie who taught me so much and for what they did. They are such lovely men, who will never be forgotten. The website looks great. Thank you to all the people who made the 2005 journey so fun. I would love to stay in contact with all of you

Congratulations on your comprehensive website. After 2 great Quiet Lion tours,2003 & 2004, Dot & I decided to meet QLT2005 at Home Phu Toey privately for the main events, Dawn & 11am Services. We were privileged to join you all on the Kwae Noi boat trip & hear Bill Haskell address us all at Hintok Mountain. Who will ever forget Bills address at the 11am service at Kanchanaburi Cemetery. May there be many more Quiet Lion tours, Regards, Kev & Dot Drinnen, Brisbane.

I think its a great site, i will be going this year and today we have 14 days left before we do go, i would like to thank Leonie for making this all possible for us 7 students from Queensland to go, i know we will have a great time there. Thanks heaps 🙂

Neil and Co this is a most impressive site. Trish and I congratulate all involved and I am looking forward to being with you again this April.

Thank you for this excellent site. This site has thrown a very personal and yet informative light on the war years of my father Jim Sutherland ( No 1 Sqdn. RAAF – Kota Bahru, Burma-Thai Railway POW, Singapore POW, Awa Maru, Senryu POW) who died this year, August 2007. Like others who have commented in this guest book, not much was said of those years at home, and it is only now I begin to fully appreciate what happened thanks to the few sites like this. An especial thank you to Neil Mac Pherson who has so generously given of his time to supply us with further information on top of all his hard work here.

Thanks for your help Neil…wish I had stumbled across your site sooner! Rick
