Reunions are what this association is all about , getting to meet up once again with our old oppos .

This year reunion will be held once again back in Cardiff  and Llandaff  by request of the members who decided the location at last years reunion .

It will again be a weekend affair as some members travel from far away places around the world to be with us.

The Holiday Inn Cardiff city centre has once again given us the deal

Reunion will be held over the weekend of the 28^th and 29^th September 2007 . on the evening of the 28^th (Friday ) We will meet up once again at the Llandaff Institute club for a get together then on the Saturday evening we will muster in great numbers in the conference room at the Holiday inn for a formal reunion Dinner with entertainment and a guest speaker .

We will have the use of the conference room until 0200 with the bar at cheaper prices  than the Hotel Bar on the ground floor .

Don’t forget this reunion is not just  for Shipmates but includes all wives, partners and guests

Prices ::::  a Double room or twin works out at £184 per room per stay of 2 nights (2 persons)

                   a Single room works out at £132 per room per stay of 2 nights  (1 person )

The rate above includes Breakfast and Reunion Dinner

Just half the rate for a one night stay!!!

For Non Residents The Reunion Dinner will cost £20 per head

The cost of covering all reunion expenses will be £15 per head (entertainment etc)

So the total cost will be for 2 persons for the weekend is £ 214 and for one person £ 147

For those who do not require accommodation the total cost for the Dinner and reunion is £35 per head  

The above rate is a special rate that has been drawn up for our association and is lower than the normal Holiday inn weekend rate so all bookings must go through the association.  

Reunion 2007 is ticking along quite nicely and so far up to date we have around about 65 booked in for the reunion Dinner on the Saturday evening.

Quite a few of you are still not sure on whether or not you can make reunion this year, if you would like accommodation fixed up you must let me know by the end of July after this date I am afraid that you will have to make your own arrangements as this is the cut off date that the Hotel have given me.

If you would like to attend the Reunion Dinner and also enjoy the entertainment that has been laid on that’s fine , all you have to do is send off a booking form to me with a cheque payable to HMS Llandaff association  , The cost of this is £35 per head .

I am hoping to get the choice of menu from the hotel very soon and as soon as it’s in my hands I will forward it onto all those who are attending. a copy is on the reunion page

George Oxley the last skipper of the Llandaff has agreed to be our Guest (After dinner speaker) at the reunion dinner.

One other thing that I intend to introduce at this years reunion is (UP SPRITS)  before we sit down for Dinner so look out the first commission boys I am looking for a couple of Rum Rats to perform the honors , Don’t panic I will supply the grog all you have to do is issue Nelsons Blood.

I have had a Buzz that some of you would like to just pop in at the Reunion Dinner just to say hi to the Skipper and a few other shipmates??  ------------- I am sorry Lads that if you want to enter the reunion Function room you will have to be booked in we do have a dress code as it is a formal Dinner and costs each one of us £35.

One last thing regarding reunion, as I am on Leave out in the far flung for the best part of August if you haven’t already paid up in full your reunion fees could you please do so before the end of August as on my return to our now Nanny state I have to pay the balance in full to the Holiday Inn and please remember that all cheques must be made payable to The HMS LLANDAFF ASSOCIATION.
