Reunions
Reunion – 2022 November 19th
The Reunion
It is hoped that in the coming years we will be able to organise an Annual Reunion or equivalent event.
The 8th Reunion of the Association will be held on Saturday 19th November 2022 in The Radstone Hotel, Ayr Road, Larkhall, ML9 2TZ.
We are proud to announce that one of our own, John Cleland, will be our guest speaker.
John is a retired British racing driver best known not only for winning the British Touring Car Championship in 1989 and 1995, but also for the controversial last round incident which denied him the 1992 championship. He is also known for his very entertaining repartee.
The cost of the event will be £45.
Unfortunately all the hotel rooms allocated to us have been taken up but if you do require accommodation please let us know and we may be able to arrange something nearer the time.
There are a few more Hotels in the vicinity.
