1st The Royal Dragoons Reunion 2011

Start:     Jun 18, '11 2:00p
End:     Jun 19, '11 10:30a
The reunion next year will be held at the same venue as this year, The Fradley Arms, and accommodation at the Premier Inn, A number of members that were at this years reunion have booked in again for next year so if you are hoping to attend I suggest that you get booked in ASAP, If you book in and find that you are unable to attend it will not cost you anything, all I ask is if you cannot make it let me know personally and I will cancel for you and book your room to the next person on my list that needs a room, in this way I can keep the Premier Inn for the members. The direct phone no for the Premier Inn is;- 01283791750.

    My apologies for being AWOL. On business in Europe and couldn't get back until the Sunday. I see from the images that have been posted that a good time was had by all.

    May I please remind all members that are hoping to attend the next years reunion to inform me so that I can put them on my list, those that have informed me need not do it again as they are on the list.

    It seems to me that there are a few members that have not informed me that they have booked into the Premier Inn for the 18th June next year, I have checked and the Premier Inn is fully booked on that date, so if you have booked can I ask you to please let me know so that I can update my list.

    Hya John
    My wife and I would love to attend next year's reunion but don't know the area at all and as the Premier Inn seems fully booked we will need to find accommodation somewhere. Is it possible you could let me know the locstat so I can get the ball rolling. Many thanks, Dave

    Dave, which Premier Inn are you booked into, the one we use is the one which comes under Lichfield and is located at Fradley along side the A38 at the back of the Fradley Arms which is the venue for the reunion. We understood that it was fully booked on the 18th June next year.
    Please confirm.

    John, I do not think that you will be able to get in on the Friday night as you will probably find that it is fully booked but you can but try.

    Hi John
    I am a member of the Royal Dragoons and would dearly love to attend the 2011 reunion. I dont need any accomodation as I live in Derby and would return home in the evening. I would like to attend on the 18th June and would require an evening meal. If this is at all possible would you let me know.
