99th. ENTRY ~ RAF HALTON
1961 + 50 = 2011
Guys, it is about time we started to think about "Our" next monumental event. I've not exactly had negative feedback on the idea of going back to The Brecons but there's not been a flood of enthusiasm for it either.
Anyway, as a more central alternative I would like to put forward the following establishment.....
http://www.pendley-manor.co.uk/
I did stay here during the 2007 All-Ex-Brat Reunion as the Holiday Inn at Aston Clinton wanted a mere £175 per night. The Pendley Manor only wanted £80 for B&B. which included creaking floorboards. It really is a nice 'gaff'. The three advantages being...
a) Five minutes from Tring railway station.
b)
Not far off the M1.
c)
Very close to The Grand Union Canal for those who wished they'd joined the Navy.
d)
Most of us will have driven there, illegally, 47 years ago.
In all seriousness it is an outstanding building set in very elegant grounds.
So let's get the ball
rolling in these early days so that the organisers are not running around like
the SWO on Passing Out Day.

Summer Camp 1963
This was such a fun time for all of us in the early stages of our lives. So much so that I have put forward The Brecons as the venue for our 50th. Anniversary from joining the RAF. This event is still some three years away but 'We' all know the passage of time is moving even faster than it did in 1963. As usual, everybody is invited to voice an opinion on this as an option for this 2011 event.
Steve Wilmott has been looking into the area and has come up with a few locations......
You can of course bring along your own Ten Man Tent.
The 99th Entry 2005 Reunion Dinner.

This WAS held on Saturday 22nd October 2005 at the Corus Hotel in Warwick.

viewed.
There are now two CDs containing a lot of quality photos of both the 1961-64 era and all
of the Reunions that have been held. Each CD is priced at £5.00p. (Two weeks pay?)

......and you can see those bald patches, grey hairs,
double chins and 38" waists.
