A group of army comrades who met through a teletext advert are trying to track down further members of their old regiment in the York area.

The 6 Regiment of Royal Artillery, which was disbanded more than 30 years ago, has had two reunion weekends since catching up with old members through Teletext's 'Service Pals' page.

Former regiment member Roy Rowbotham, from Bishopthorpe, said more than 70 former members responded to the advert and he is keen to contact further members he believes may have settled in the York area.

He can be contacted on 01904 705804.
