| Local BT Pensioner Groups and Re-UnionsWhy not set up a local BT Pensioner Group. Volunteers to act as a local coordinator would be required . The Groups and their activities would be run independently from this Website but communications for setting up could be through this page.Each local group could be based on the major towns and cities of the UK where there was once a Telephone/General Managers Office (TMO/GMO) Local groups large and small may already exist and if so they could be detailed here. VolunteersVolunteers please send your contact details to me for posting on this page mailto:wm.rees@icloud.com Local Groups1. LEXPO London West End
We
are a group of some 150 plus BT engineers (planning, customer project
management, PBX, commissioning, fitting, sub apps) who worked out of Warwick
House Soho in the West End District of London. Additionally we have links
with Sales, External Planning, Paddington Engineers and Museum/Tower TE.
Some
of us planners have been great friends and we’ve kept in touch since we
started working together in 1967.
Lexpo
FC started in 1969 in the old Centre Area Telephone Football League, since then
we had a Bar, Sports & Social Club in Warwick House with many functions,
trips and even holidays together.
When our
football team started in 1970 we could not register with the FA using Warwick FC
as it already existed.
So having our garage
at the rear in Lexington St we called ourselves Lexpo the PO bit was from
Post Office Telephones as we were back then. (the Lobs is Lexpo Old
Boys)
